NEW YORK, NEW YORK – An overcast day with intermit clearing. The sky is really low. Here’s Citicorp center out my office window. I’m using a “new” old lens: a 40mm Leica Summicron-C from 1977. This lens was designed for use with the Leica CL, a “budget” camera produced in a joint venture with Minolta. Leica CL. I found this lens, which is in perfect condition, at a very good price on e-bay – I’ve been watching for one for some time. It has the advantage of being the most compact Leica-built lens for M-mount cameras. It appears to be very, very good. I’ll be exploring its capabilities over the next few days.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Another very busy day at my day job. I’m reduced to shooting out the window of my office. It’s one of those oppressive hazy days -double digit humidity. Frankly, I thought that this was not much of an images, but seeing it in context up on this site I like it a bit more than I expected.

Leica M9 and the 30-year-old 35 mm lens that is my constant companion.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Another attack of the photo-a-day blues. I’m really focusing on editing my Africa work – photographing New York seems dull. The best i could muster was a shot of a shadow of a water tank out my window.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Here we are on a dull Friday the 13th. Spent most of the day organizing for Africa trip. Uninspired in terms of photography. This is out our window.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – This is out the window of our 11th floor apartment, looking into our courtyard. Our building is doing “Local Law 10” work on the exterior. Local law 10, which requires periodic inspection and repairs of building facades, was enacted in 1980 after a piece of terra cotta masonry fell from the facade of an Upper West Side building and killed a passing college student.
