My new camera (a Canon PowerShot S200) arrived yesterday afternoon. I'd gone out with it yesterday evening, but had been failing to use macro mode, and was too tired and grumpy to get good shots.

As a real trial run for the camera, I decided to look in various places along the train tracks between Broadway Street and over as far as Fort Washington Park, in Cambridge. Pete stopped by to pick up some stuff, and decided to join me.

Our first stop was on Broadway Street, where we poked around under the rotating billboard and then in the mowed grass across the street. We then walked along Vassar Street, and picked up the train tracks again where they cross Mass. Ave. I didn't find much else of interest until we reached the Fort Washington Park crossing, where I took the rest of the pictures.

I introduced Pete to eating purple clover, and discouraged him from taking home the big metal pipes.
