Day 5,841 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

Looking back to this day last year in Rome. With had dinner at a niece’s house here and found that she had scraped six of my images off of my website and had them printed and framed. Day 5,476 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT – Perfect day for weather here; a little dull for photography. Seasonal stuff.
Day 5,840 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
Washington CT
Looking back exactly ten years to a truly dreary evening in Manhattan. The RFK Bridge out our window with a long lens. Day 2,187 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
MANHATTAN – Another museum day here, this time at the Frick. The collection has be marvelously re-hung in a revitalized space. But . . . there is no place to sit. My preferred way of seeing art is to select an item and plop myself down in front of it for an our or so, researching its history and critical commentary. Unfortunately there is almost not place to sit at the Frick. Also, I learned after I snapped this image with El Greco’s Saint Jerome in the background, that photography is not permitted. Had there been a bench in front of Saint Jerome I would have used it for an hour. Still shooting with my Leica Q3 43.

St. Jerome
Looking back exactly ten years to Beijing. September 19, 2015. Day 2,167 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
BETHLEHEM CONNECTICUT – I stopped by Mark Mennin’s and Marcia DeSanctis’s house today to drop off a lasagna. Here’s some of Mark’s work at rest outside the house. I’m shooting with my Leica Q3 43, a backup camera – my beloved M11 Monochrom has gone off the Wetzlar Germany for some maintenance work; it gets heavy daily use so it occasionally needs attention. (I once owned a BMW M5 which turned out to be a shop bunny; the M11M appears to have common DNA in that respect.) Leica has been very good at getting the camera back in good working order quickly at no expense to me. But I miss it.
Day 5,817 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

Looking back precisely three years to Westerly RI, late in the Covid epidemic. Day of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
