Last Monday was the Boston Marathon. The weekend before is like a big party in Boston. There are thousands of visitors and the finish line is all set up. People congregate there to take photos. In the past, I’ve gone later in the day and found it crowded and difficult to move or get good pictures. Last Sunday, I arrived there at about 6:30 AM. There were people milling around taking photos but it was much less crowded. I met two nice groups, one from Ohio and another from China. The Ohio group was into big group shots. Team China (as I call them) preferred action shots with lots of running and jumping. I hope everyone had a good race.
How quickly it is another year and another Boston Marathon. I can imagine the logistical nightmare to do this plus the safety and security measures now in place. I am glad it was another successful and peacefully ended event. Happy Easter my friend, peace, blessings and good health is wished for you and your family.
Happy Easter!
πThanks
Awesome shots, Chris! Love the one with them lying on the ground, grinning into your camera! And the Chinese action-shots are so funny, I think I’d do something like that too. π I can’t believe that there were so many people around already at this early hour! Happy Easter! ππ
I figure the Asian athletes were there at 6:30 AM because they are still on Chinese time. The group on the ground was well-prcticed and knew all of the psoes. Cheers!
Great images Chris..the colors are wow !
Thank you, Sohair. It is a colorful event.
