Jamaica Pond in Color

Sam Blackmon has a new site call The Jamaica Pond Project. Heres how he describes it:

Life on a Smaller Scale

We live in Jamaica Plain, a neighborhood on the south side of Boston. One of the best parts of JP is, undoubtedly, Jamaica Pond, a small, spring-fed, kettle pond.

The pond covers about 60 acres and is 90 feet deep at its center, making it the largest body of fresh water in Boston. It’s ringed by a walking path that is rarely empty.

Every time I walk around the path I try to find something different, or beautiful, or sad, or silly. This is what I’ve seen.

A few days ago, this photo was what I saw riding by Jamaica Pond. Hard not to miss.
