WARREN CONNECTICUT – An unseasonably warm, foggy day. This kind of weather rubs me against the grain. I’m an optimist. My glass is never far from full. I like sunny days with dark blue skies and puffy white clouds. None of that today. Here we are in the fog. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and a vintage 50mm Summicron lens, three frames stitched. By the way I’ve temporarily disabled my star rating system and my Facebook integration because they both play badly with a new version of WordPress that we installed a few days ago. We;ll get it sorted out eventually.

On this day one year ago: Bill and Bunny.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – We had a moment of brilliant light just outside of the building that my office is located in. One of the lessons that I learned on a four month photographic excursion in Brazil a decade ago was whenever good light arrives stop and shoot whatever is at hand. Anyway, the following are taken with my Leica Monochrom and am 18mm Super Elmar lens.


On this day last year: Shake Shack.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – A chance to recharge in this rustic corner of Connecticut. Here’s our gate (which is grander than we are) taken with my Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summicron lens on a tripod. Three frames stitched.

On this day one year ago: the iPhone does architecture.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I took a walk up Sixth Avenue today and found that not much was happening for me visually until I got to Bryant Park, where I hit a reflections jackpot. The light is usually interesting here, particularly if there is sunlight to play off of the Bank America building. This extends a theme that I’ve spent a lot of time on in this space – it’s interesting work (to my eyes) after a few days of dullish posts. Taken with my Leica Monchrom and 24mm Summilux lens.

On this day one year ago: Citigroup.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Today we sasa terrific performance of Verdi’s Masked Ball at the Metropolitan Opera. Actually I hated the production and loved the singing with Sondra Radvanovsky, Marcelo Álvarez and Dmitri Hvorostovsky leading the cast. I’m still buzzing from the performance almost a week later as I write this. Here’s a member of the audience with my iPhone. A break from my Leica Monochrom.

On this day last year: New Preston CT.

MUSTIQUE – Go ahead and say it. For the past couple of days I’ve been shooting in a mojo-free zone. I must have left it back in New York. Maybe my mojo doesn’t like the tropical climate. Like a good Bordeaux. But today I found it. My mojo must have taken a later flight. Some not bad images today, at last. All with some assistance from my Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summilux lens.



On this day one year ago: really wide.
