NEW YORK NEW YORK – OK, OK. Ive shot the Papaya King in East 86th Street before. And does it really make sense in black and white given that we’re missing the egg-yolk yellow color. Here it is in any event. And another pinhole image from a year ago. Not every day in the photo-a-day world is equal.

Day 1,966 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I walked from my office to the Metropolitan Opera this evening in light rain. The city looks great when its cold, dark and wet.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – A very busy day – for some reason the little time that I had for images was well-used with some good results.

On this day five years ago (day 134): Snow in Central Park. So . . . 2015 isn’t the first bad winter in this ice-blighted corner of North America.

On this day five years ago (day 132): Times Square. Pretty thin pickings as I went back over five years of images from February 24. It must be winter fatigue.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – This is another very cold day with nice light. I’m posting three images, not because they are all terrific, but because I couldn’t decide. In general I try to explore eight or ten image ideas every day, which results in 30-50 images as I walk around each subject trying on different angles and framings. Editing is a serious chore.

Day 1,957 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.
