A closer look at life in Charlestown.
Charlestown photographer Glenn Clabo captured these two images recently on the same morning—one of an amazing sky over the Bunker Hill Monument and the other of the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge reflected in the water. "The monument probably has been photographed from every angle every season and time of day, but this morning the sky was interesting so I just had to," Clabo said of the first image. "And then I walked down to the water and saw the the bridge reflection and couldn't resist." Got a great photograph of Charlestown?

* But not of "restricted areas" or if you're "interfering with transportation activity."
The right to take photos on public property, including the subway, is well established under the First Amendment. But depending on the T employee who sees you snapping photos, you might get hassled. Other riders have been known to take exception to shutterbugs, too. On Monday, the T updated its photo policy to make it clear that, under most circumstances, photography is allowed. Persons may take photographic or video images, including but not limited to film, digital or video recordings (Images) of MBTA Property, including but not limited to stations, buses, trains, or other vehicles for their personal use.
