It was nice to hear the history of the area, and be reminded of how many neat shots there are to be taken in your own backyard.

This experience was so worthwhile that I'm looking into the several other Photowalk tours offered, hoping to take my granddaughter who is just getting into serious photography. But you don't need a fancy camera: I have a simple point-and-shoot one, and (because of Saba's coaching), I have some remarkable photographs and tips for future such.

Saba was a great tour guide - had lots of information about Beacon Hill and gave great tips on taking pictures. Never rushed anyone and was very good natured.
