fruit stand on the way to harper’s ferry in w. virginia…my favorite thing about summer!

love boston + love artists = love fort point.

fort point is right across the water from the financial district of boston, a bronx-ish neighborhood that is experiencing a new surge of life: thanks (hugely) in part to the talented artisits who fill the industrial lofts that line streets, disguised as warehouses and other massive old buildings. inside each is an enclave of cool, artsy folks who produce everything from paintings and pottery to jewelry and photographs. the opportunity to check out their studios and their work comes twice a year — a ‘preview’ art walk in the spring, and then the larger open studios event in the fall.

i went up to boston a few weeks back and spent some time admiring some of my new favorite artists, check them out:

spent last sunday seeing baltimore from a different angle…

canoes ‘docked’ in fells point…

my gorgeous friend emily, being exuberant as always…

john making valiant attempts to demonstrate his sea legs…

went to merriweather last saturday to see the thievery corporation show…incredible!

i was really looking forward to bebel gilberto’s performance as well, i simply adore her…

unfortunately, although they let me in with my camera, i flaked on securing a photo pass and ended up being shut down by security when i broke out my 200mm. apparently certain shows are super strict about photogs, and this wasn’t my lucky day.

i ended up shooting the screen from our spot on the lawn, which was great, and i think the photos are pretty cool, even if they aren’t exactly what i had hoped to capture…
