No one can hear me scream

This is a record of my daily commute by foot from Boston to Cambridge and back, perhaps 1½ miles and 25-35 minutes each way (my walking pace is reflected in the photo timestamps). The stylistic rule I made up for this alliteratively-titled photojournalistic masterpiece: all pictures must be taken within 180° of the direction of motion. On a practical level, this means I am always looking where I am going. On a technical level this also works out well: the outdoor portion of my morning commute is due north-west-ish from home, which means the sun is at my back for all the outdoor pictures in both the morning and evening. On a deeper philosophical and artistic level, this style symbolizes the always-optimistic forward-looking-ness that is me.

Actually, I kind of suck. My camera ran out of batteries halfway across the bridge on the way home. But it was getting dark anyways.
