Windy day in Beantown

02.27.09 - Boston, Mass. - People struggled through Copley Square (known for it's wind) on Friday, being blasted by what seemed like 40-60 mph gusts. Quite literally, I couldn't walk forward at points. Anyway, made for some good photos.

02.21.09 - Cambridge, Mass. - Shot a funeral at St. James's Episcopal Church on the first day I came to work with out a collar in three weeks...smoooooth. Very sad. Earlier in the week, Hunter Pope, 12 of Cambridge, died suddenly of the flu. Naturally, only in the worst circumstances does Will land a front page.
