WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT – We had an outing today to a very happy gathering at Spring Hill Vineyards. Here’s a silo.
Day 5,857 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
Looking back exactly 9 years to Britany. Shot with my Leica type 240 Monochrom. Day 2,596 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Six or seven years ago I took inventory of things that I was once good at: I remembered that there was I time, way back when I was in the Marine Corps, when I was a good shot with a pistol. So I got licensed in Connecticut and set up a range. Here’s the best that I’ve been able to do (shot in 2023 and photographed today), with a Wilson Combat 1911. Quick firing 30 rounds from 25 feet. Some left handed and some right handed.
Day 5,856 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
Looking back 13 years to a serious side-eye at the Nespresso store in Manhattan. Day 1,108 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

Looking back precisely 16 years to Drain, Oregon. Day 11 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
MANHATTAN – A month ago I sent three Leica film cameras to be serviced by Youxin Ye. They arrived back today, so I’m running a role of Kodak T-Max 400 through each of them to test them. Here’s how it came out: for the Leica IIIg with a “radioactive” Summicron I loaded the film improperly so I got nothing. Today’s images are from the Leica M3 and the Dual Range Summicron. Here’s a sample image. It works fabulously.
Day 5,854 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

Looking back precisely seven years to a wine tasting. Day 3,295 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – I spent the day experimenting with legacy lenses on my newly-repatriated Leica M11M. Here’s a “bokeh” shot with a Dual Range Summicron from 1963. This is my new favorite lens.
