WARREN CONNECTICUT – Another seriously foggy day up on the hill here where we have a weekend get away. I actually like fog – it washes out the details leaving the graphic content behind.
Day 1,878 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I spent the day downtown. I actually started on Houston Street at REI stocking up on this and that for travel and outdoors. The photography was only ok in not very good light. I’ve shot around the Chambers Street subway station before – there is a lovely arcade with Guastavino tiles on the overhead (as far as one can tell). I also shot the paddy wagon entrance to the Tombs.

On this day two years ago (day 1,147): 919 Third Avenue.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I took a walk today in Midtown in the rain and captured 432 Park Avenue, the Nordstrom Tower, which for now will be the tallest residential structure in the world. There are various points of view on this, with some feeling that it’s a blight on the skyline, and others suggesting that it reflects the continued dynamism of Manhattan. Your choice on this issue.

On this day two years ago (day 1,145): Spin meets Basil, who uncharacteristically is in repose. This violates my long-standing rule against cute kids and dogs or other pets on this forum, so I’m taking the position that his is actually a picture of the vase in the background, which is from Spin in Shanghai, even though it is out of focus.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – More snow. This weekend I’ve been shooting almost exclusively with my Leica f.95 Noctilux lens. Today I used a 1.8 neutral density filter, which provides six f-stops of darkening and permits me to shoot wide open at f.95 in the brilliant snowy landscape. This provides for a distinctive look that can’t be obtained any other way. The first image is two frames stitched.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – So we’re here for a long Thanksgiving weekend with Alexander, Francesca, Laura and Baby V. This is turkey hash day: I turn 100% of the leftover turkey into hash, serve it for dinner, and toss the carcass – I don’t fid turkey stock to be especially useful. More snowshoeing and enjoying a perfectly clear, not-too-cold, winter day.
Day 1,870 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
