Beacon Hill and the 24-carat gold State House dome.
Beacon Hill with Mass General in the background.

Trinity Church at Copley Square.

Upper Tremont Street.

A nice shot of the Gardens and the Mall.

The Longfellow Bridge connects Boston with Cambridge.
I love 111 Huntington!
The Tobin Bridge connects East Boston with Chelsea.
The ever-expanding Longwood Medical area in the background.
Above the Common.
The Back Bay skyline.
Partial shot of the Financial District.
