NEW YORK NEW YORK and NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT – I went by train up to New Haven today to visit the Yale Art Gallery photo collection. We spent a delightful hour or two reviewing the work of Robert Adams.

This with my Leica Monchrom and Luxochron lens in Grand Central Terminal. A very common view but uncommon light – my best to date in GCT. Later in the day on New Haven Green.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I’ve mentioned that Laura and Alexander are living with us while their kitchen is being finished, right. And that her due date is Friday and we’re timing contractions and going back and forth to the hospital. I started to give up hope on seeing a baby today so I went out on the street with my medium format Leica S2 and caught a dog’s eye view picture that I had noticed earlier while walking Basil. But mid-day Laura went into the delivery room in a definitive fashion, and . . . Welcome to the world, Victoria! Here’s our first grandchild, about 30 minutes old in these pictures, taken with my Leica S2, 70mm lens and a speed light.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Our lovely warm Autumn has permitted the begonias on the Park Avenue islands to grow longer and larger than I’ve ever seen them before – they are actually chest high. Taken with my Sony RX100 II, which I’m still carrying around after last night. Kind of a mundane image but keeps the photo a day thing alive.

On this day last year: Fall color. A lot of these this time of year. A lot of them in black
