RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA – I’m here on business so get prepared for a rough patch in the daily photo scene. Traveling with my Leica Monochrom, but shooting a lot between meetings with my iPhone.
Day 1,915 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
On this day three years ago (day 1,185): Fog. It turns out that I have quite a few images of fog. Comes with the turf in living in the Northeastern US.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – The wasn’t much opportunity for psychic focus on photography today – my attention was diverted to preparations for some client meeting that start tomorrow and preparations for our departure to India on Friday of next week. Also, the light here was flat and dull. I ended up experimenting with some “shoot up” angles, clearly not as interesting here as in Manhattan.
Day 1,914 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.
On this day three years ago (day 818): Out my window. Original in color. Converted to grayscale.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – There was a snowfall here yesterday but not enough for cross country skiing or snowshoeing so visually I did what I could with a little bit of snow, good light and some animal tracks.
Day 1,913 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 87): Morris Connecticut.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – This is an embarrassment. Too many images. I put the lovely little Leica 35mm Summicron (current version) on my camera today and went out to upper Fifth Avenue in excellent late afternoon light. It was one of those days where everywhere I pointed my camera there was something of interest (at least to me). I ended up with a bunch of full frontal images of buildings, generally made up of multiple images stitched, and some park images. You might ask why I didn’t edit the images down a bit. Well I actually have. thanks for your patience in working through this maze of stuff.
Day 1,912 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
On this day two years ago (day 1,182): Sunnylands. A pilgrimage to this mid-century icon in Palm Desert.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – It’s so bitterly cold today that I didn’t venture out of our apartment. I worked from home and shot around the house. I keep an inventory of these in the back of my mind for shut-in days, and wait for interesting light and shadows. The vase is from Spin in Shanghai – this is not the first time that I’ve photographed it.
Day 1,911 of a picture every day for the rest of my life.
On this day two years ago (day 1,182): Still in Santa Monica. The sunsets here can be spectacular.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Self-explanitory? I don’t post many pictures of recognizable people here. Based on feedback on my Twitter feed (where I now have 66,000 followers) pictures of people, even moderately famous people, are of limited interest to my online audience. This may be because I’m better at places and things than people, but some objectively good images of people have been largely ignored online. Still . . . I post the images that I like whatever the subject. Just to make sure that I don’t loose your interest I’ve also included a second image for the day, a water tank in nice light.
Day 1,910 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.

On this day two years ago (day 1,180): Santa Monica beach
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I got out to Central Park at dusk on this foreboding, overcast day. Interesting. It turns out that dusk to early evening is actually good light – a fine insight for days that offer otherwise hopelessly dull light.
Day 1,909 of a picture a day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 83): Empire State.
