View of Zakim Bridge from the Train

Here is one more photograph from last Friday's trip into Boston. I try to photograph this bridge whenever I get a chance (which usually means whenever I have the opportunity to be in the passenger's seat on a trip to Boston, and taking pictures of a bridge from a moving car is not easy!) But Friday, I took the commuter rail into Boston, and the train's path is just below the bridge. The train moves at a nice slow pace as it approaches North Station. This gave me the opportunity to take pictures of the bridge from a different vantage point. The reflection of the train's windows created a diagonal across the top of the photo, geometric and yet somehow magical, like the Zakim Bridge itself.
