MANHATTAN – I started the day on the far West Side in the 50s doing digital images. I finished near home shooting film in my new, used Hasselblad Superwide C. I’m pushing working with film so I can make every mistake possible (leaving home without a dark slide, shooting with the lens cap on, etc.), learning along the way.

Day 3751 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

This one came out nicely. I framed so that the door was centered in the square format. In processing the film I didn’t mix the developer sufficiently, so the top of the film was streaked and over-cooked. That’s the left side of the image, which I had to crop off, leaving an asymetrical image. Probably better than the concept I had shooting.

On this date five years ago (day 1825 of one photo every day): Jaipur India. I’ve re-edited this day.

MANHATTAN – Hiding out at home on a day of remarkably bad weather.

Day 3750 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this day nine years ago (day 463 of one photo every day): Third Avenue after a rain.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Some full frontal structures in good winter light. Shooting film still. It’s a major time sink, and very much like having a job, doing film on a daily basis. Shooting with a Hasselblad Superwide C on Tri-X film.

On this date six years ago (day 1558 of one photo every day): Yosemite.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Still experimenting with the Hasselblad Superwide, shooting film. The first image is with film; I really like the rendering of the snow, which is difficult to get right. The second image is a digital capture – a bit unfair because the light wasn’t as interesting.

On this day eight years ago (day 827 of one photograph every day): Williamsburg.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – I know that the barn below doesn’t look like much, but its part of an important project for me: film. Yes, I’m experimenting with film. I recently purchased a Hasselblad Superwide C on the used market – used Hasselblad film gear sells for very little now. It’s apparently in good shape. I’m putting it through its paces, testing its functioning and practicing making images with it. I’ll be shooting with it on and off over the next few weeks.

MANHATTAN – Here I am lurking around Lexington Avenue in low 50s – one of my favorite light and shadow destinations.

Day 3746 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this date three years ago (day 2651 of one photo every day): Laguardia Airport.

MANHATTAN – I lurked around the Upper East Side with a camera today, looking for new angles on old subjects.
