WARREN CONNECTICUT – So if the day after Christmas is Boxing Day, what’s the day after Thanksgiving? Purging Day? Leftovers Day? Cold Turkey Day. Try to Get Some Exercise Day? Get the Hell Out of the Kitchen Day? We’ll have to work on this.
My disposition has dramatically improved, foto-wise. I got out in good morning light with a tripod, my Alpa Max and the usual suspects in terms of lenses, filters and so on.
On this day one year ago: Thanksgiving 2010.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Another hectic day as we stuff five adults, a Norwich Terrier and food for four days into the car for the trip to Connecticut. Here we are at our parking garage waiting for our car. Taken with m Leica M9 and 12mm Voigtlander lens.
On this day one year ago: Kimball declaims on a bottle from Gaja,
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – From a shopping point of view today was the run up to Thanksgiving. I spent most of the day shopping for food in anticipation of an onslaught of family and friends in Connecticut. I captured this with my Leica and a 12mm Voigtlander lens while crossing 86th Street to go to Fairway.
On this day one year ago: The Guggenheim Museum. One of my better takes on a local icon that I struggle with.
NORTHVILLE CONNECTICUT – Back to Connecticut at last. No hurricane. No blizzard. No problems. A rare relief.
I had a chance to explore a de-commissioned church that I’ve seen many times from a distance in gentle, late afternoon light. This is two exposures with my Alpa Max, stitched in Photoshop. Whatever information there may have been about this structure appears to be lost, at least on the web.
On this day last year: Citicorp Center at night.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I ran into a moment of lovely light on East 96th Street. Captured with my Ricoh GRD IV.
On this day one year ago: Henry Moore at Columbia.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Back home. I carried my little Ricoh GRD IV through the day, catching autumn foliage ending up on the sidewalk, and a new installation at Lever House, a salt water aquarium and plants by Paula Hayes. Very cool. Worth a look.
On this day last year: on the Acela.
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – A Boston-themed date. I find myself in Boston taking a walk at sunrise with my little Ricoh GRD IV. Not an ideal camera for sunrises but there is a small voice in my head that urges me to violate the “horses for courses” rule. Here’s Boston Harbor:
On this day last year: wing of the Boston Shuttle. I was . . . on my way to Boston.
