Light Tricks: February 20, 2025
A weekly breath of fresh air you can count on, through various lenses
A weekly update from my adventures in amateur photography, new every Thursday. The lenses behind these Light Tricks are as detailed in each caption, accompanied by any notes on the subject matter.
This is the door to Hecate, a speakeasy in Boston that was over-hyped for a very long time. I was finally able to snag a seat at the bar last summer [and made sure to completely ignore the lecture on who Hecate is by the hostess on my way in]. To be fair, the cocktail menu was unique (I could still taste the frankincense vapors infused into my drink long after sipping it) and the bartender was friendly enough. Is it a vibe? Yes. Is it worth killing your existing evening plans to stay on its manufactured waiting list? Absolutely not.
PS: Bring a flashlight, it’s hella dark in there!
