Upon first view of the impossibly flawless Hancock building in downtown Boston, I knew I had to get closer to it... significantly closer! I approached it slowly, gazing upwards of course, apparently unaware of the possibility that I could bump into someone by proceeding forward in this manner! Mesmerised by its geometrically perfect design, I just couldn't pull myself away from it. Its lines are obviously structurally parallel but due to the sheer height of the building, they display a teasing notion of convergence. And so aesthetically pleasing! I can't even keep the few windows in my house clean for any length of time! Seeing this marvel of squeegeed excellence stirred in me both a satisfying sigh and a jealous pang.
I was capturing a few shots as I was moving closer, but it wasn't until I was virtually pressed against its sleek, polished mirrors that I found the viewpoint that resulted in sheer elation.
