WARREN CONNECTICUT – Late November and early December are a very busy period for me. I managed to keep up one photo a day but i’ve fallen behind in posting. I’ll catch up in the next few days.
Day 2,962 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date three years ago (day 1,866): At home
NEW PRESTON CONNECITCUT – A shot of the local architecture with my Leica Monochrom Model 246 and my new Wide Angle Tri-Elmar lens at 21mm. Another day when I’ve taken exactly one picture – very busy on the run-up to Thanksgiving.
Day 2,960 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 1,134): Mustique. Shot using my Leica 35mm Summilux lens, which I still treasure today. Two frames stitched.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I bought a cheap, fun lens for my Leica, a 7 Artisans 50mm f/1,1. Very fast and solidly built in China, but optically odd in the extreme. As I reported to a Leica online forum: Take your choice of one of the following characterizations:
– a lens of unique character that provides highly atmospheric images, or
– the worst lens I’ve every had. The outer third of image is blurry even at f16. I’ve got an uncoated 1938 Zeiss sonar that does a lot better (albeit at f1.5 not f1.1!).
Today’s image is on the street with this “lens” ( I happened to have the right sized neutral density filter so I was able to shoot it on the street at f 1.1). I no longer own it. Experimenting with gear is part of the fun of this project.
Day 2,954 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year (day 2,954): A Boston Park taken in lovely light
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – Another mundane image with my Leica Monochrom. Hard-pressed professionally and a savage head cold.
Day 2,953 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day seven years ago (day 396 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life): Helmsley Building – the original in color.
BOSTON MASSACUSETTS – A busy day here so not much going on in my photo world. Take with my Leica Monochrom and 90mm “macro” lens.
Day 2,952 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – A rushed day – today I literally took one picture – a butt depository in the alley behind our building. But at least the light is good. My Leica Nonochrom turning the mundane into mumdane plus.
Day 2,949 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day two years ago (day 2,219): Better than usual alley.
DICKSON TENNESSEE – You read that correctly. We made a flash trip down here on some personal business. Images taken with my Leica Monochrom. I’m getting good use out of my relatively new Leica 90mm macro lens.
Day 2,948 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life,
On this day three years ago (day 1,852): Empire State Building
