SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA – I’m in San Diego for a reunion of my Marine Corps Officers Basic School class. For more on this click the link to my biography. This was a travel day so I didn’t get much in the way of images. I did visit the San Diego Zoo; I’m afraid that I’m joining the dyspeptic band that finds zoos sad and distasteful, so I couldn’t find any images. Anyway, here’s the pool in the hotel that we’re staying at.

Day 1,840 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

On this day three years ago (day 744): Freak Blizzard. Yes, we were hit by a freak blizzard on October 29, 2011. A couple of images from Warren. This was one of the most destructive storms in our lifetime because the very heavy snow crushed millions of threes, which still had their leaves.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – This evening we went to a benefit for Words Without Borders held at a venue just off of Canal Street. I got images on the way and at the event. All with my Monochrom, of course.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Back to visually happy. I caught the Chanin Building (the Chrysler Bauilding’s neighbor) in fine light, then later in the day apart-like space near the UN in the rain. As always taken with my talented Leica Monochrom.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – A weak look up – I’m struggling a bit this week. I’ve done other similar pictures that are much stronger. The dull light today made me feel dull.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – On a walk in the East Village today I ran across a bit of fence that had painted strips on it so that if you line them up just right it made the face of a man. On the way home a subway artist sketched the pretty young woman sitting across from me. That it. October 22. In a nutshell.

Day 1,833 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
