Amazing photos. Boston is blessed with such a wealth of wonderful historic architecture.

2/8 from Symmes Arlington. Check out the helicopter's reflection in the Hub office tower. (although on 2nd look I see another one across the residential/Avalon so now I'm just confused)

@DZH22, was that shot taken using HDR settings on your camera? I find it more likely that the three helicopters come from multiple exposures, not reflections.

A lovely shot either way!

It's just a regular picture! I do very simple editing after the fact in the "Photos" program for color, contrast, and straightening but nothing that would add phantom helicopters! So we are either seeing a line of 3 in a row, or possibly 2 with the far left one being reflected.

^That picture reminds me of my time in japan because the road is in great condition, youre on an elevated viaduct, theres lots of generic midrises, and to the right is a vinyl white building with glass.

You're fortunate to have been there - - for me, it reminded me of the final credits scene in Lost in Translation ........
