Selected Spots & When to Go

  • Fan Pier at sunset — skyline silhouettes.
  • Long Wharf in morning light — calm water reflections and crisp architecture.
  • Beacon Hill midday — even lighting for textured brick and lamppost details.

Quick Camera Checklist

  • Fast shutter speed for moving-top-deck shots.
  • Polarizer for reducing glare on water and enhancing skies.
  • Extra battery or portable charger — long days of shooting drain phones and cameras.
