NEW YORK NEW YORK – A gray day but not quite raining. A poor day for landscape in the city. I walked up Third Avenue with my Leica and Wide Angle Tri Elmar lens (shot at 21mm).

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Have I mentioned the weather lately? I’m sort of a puffy clouds in a blue sky kind of guy. There hasn’t been much of that around here lately. We’ve had a storm system settle down on top of us, like a mother-in-law coming to visit for a couple of days but staying for a month. This was taken on Third Avenue with my Leica M9 and a 135mm APO Telyt.
Rain, rain go away

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – I watched a remarkable light develop out my office window. Rain wet Third Avenue reflected light that seemed to be shining only on it. Another demonstration that there are pictures all around us if only we watch for them. Four exposures take with my Lecia M9 and a 90mm Elmarit lens stitched in Photoshop.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – 919 Third Avenue, where my office is located. Got this walking to the office this morning in brilliant, encompassing late fail light. For the week of November 14 through 21 I’m using a single camera and lens: a Leica M9 with a 35mm Summicron Asph. This is a wonderfully flexible combination. When I need wider I shoot to stitch multiple frames together. I rarely need longer. 919 Third Avenue is a Skidmore Owings & Merrill building completed in 1970. It closely resembles an earlier Mies van der Rohe design.
