WARREN CONNECTICUT – We’re finally getting over a very late spring here. One of my theories of photography is that there are very occasionally moments when the light is exquisite – when this happens you should stop and photograph whatever is at hand, and it will be beautiful. We had one of the moments today so I shot a beanpole behind our house. From earlier in the day Baby V reading the paper with her dad and a plant in a perennial border. I could decide which to post here so I posted all three.

Day 1,710 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

On this day tow years ago (day 980): Scuol Switzerland. Edited from the color that I put up two years ago.

NEW YORK NEW YORK and MARBLE DALE CONNECTICUT – It must be a summer Friday. The morning found me on Madison Avenue near home in the 90s running errands; lunchtime found us in Marble Dale stopped for a burger at a local roadside joint named Clamps. No McDonald’s here! Lovely light in both place captured with my Leica Monochrom and Luxochron lens.

Day 1,708 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.

On this day one year ago (day 1,344): Sculpture.

BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – Out my window. A rushed shot on a rushed day. Nothing to be proud of here.

Day 1,706 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 1,342): At sunrise the light shines in.

CHICAGO ILLINOIS – Still here, but rushing to get back to New York between thunderstorms. We stayed at a boutique hotel on the gold coast, so I spent some time exploring local alleys. This is expensive real estate. Odd that Chicago hasn’t put the utilities underground.

Both images with my Leica Monocchrom.

Day 1,703 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.

On this day four years ago (day 243): 289 Devonshire Street, Boston.

NEW YOR NEW YORK – There was really good light on Broadway today. I hung out in the mid-60s for a couple of hours with my Leica Monochrom.

Day 1,702 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 1,367): Grand Central Terminal at night.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I ran into my friend Tom Barry in front of the Colony Club; I found myself on the sidewalk in front of the Ferrari store on Park Avenue, where a 1961 California Spyder (perhaps the most beautiful car ever made) was parked next to the curb; and I found myself on Sixth Avenue looking up. Hard to decide so here you go with all three, all taken with my Leica Monochrom and a 50mm Luxochron lens.

Day 1,701 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 1,336): Big red thing. At least it was red last year. In light of my new commitment to all things black and white I’ve translated the image to grayscale for the look back. If you want to see it in color you can click through to the link to last year.
