WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT – Here’s a martini, ordered, consumed (but not by me) and photographed at the Waramaug Club. This is the second or third time that I’ve shot a martini close up in this project. The images was taken with my iPhone and the framing was a bit rough, so I used AI to recrop the image at the margins. Can you tell where?

Looking back ten years to September 14, 2015: I was in Tokyo on business with little time for photography so I snapped the Tokyo skyline from a window at the Hotel New Otani where I was staying.  I lost track of where this was taken from so I uploaded the image the ChatGPT, which was able to identify the hotel (this corresponds to my faded recollection). Day 2162 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
