Suggest interesting places in Boston to take pics

[thatsright]

Love to take pics, and my camera has been lonely of late.

Live in Boston, and I seem to of run out of interesting places/things to take shots of. I'll rank what I'm interested in:

1. Bright colors, and anything with compelling contrasts.
2. Abstract buildings, architecture, oddities
3. Reflections. Either from a puddle of water or off glass.
4. Occasional nature shots, but not as 'fun' as #1/2
5. People, not really. Just doesn't do much for me,

I've taken pictures of: Charles river area from Cambridge side; Copley sq; Castle Island in S.Boston; South End; and a few less than stellar pics in NYC.

I've run out of ideas. But I know there is much more out thee. I have been trying to find a large koi pond, but no luck.

Suggestions? I haven't had a good photo shoot in over two months!

Thanks

When the leaves start to turn you will have plenty of things to shoot

Get an idea of what you want to photograph (what emotion do you want to capture, what to you want the picture to say) and think about it for a while. Look at photographs that capture that same feeling and think about what the photographer did. I guarantee you that if you know what you want to achieve before you even touch your camera, your photos will turn out much nicer.

A fifteen minute brainstorm session will do more than hours of walking around Yosemite, IMO.

EDIT: That said, try and go to a place you haven't been to before. Think about the place that you would least think of photographing and go there.
