MILAN ITALY – We spend a good part of the day today at a brand new museum here, the Fondazione Prada. The architecture is marvelous – I couldn’t begin to edit the images down to one. Like the new Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, it’s currently light on collection. Fondazione Prada solved this problem in part by putting up an exhibition of important Greek sculpture (and Roman copies) borrowed from all over Europe. We preferred the organic architecture here, which feels a bit like a Roman forum, to the grander, Frank Gehry, realization in Paris.

Day 2082 of one photograph every day for the best of my life.

NEW YORK NEW YORK. I spent the middle of the day exploring 9th Avenue. Hells’ Kitchen is no longer really Hell’s Kitchen. First and Ninth Avenues are among the few streets in New York which retain some of their “Old New York” 19th and early 20th Century character. I’ll be shooting them to preserve their memory; there areas are changing very rapidly.

Day 2064 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
