NEW YORK NEW YORK – Walking on a side street in the East 80s I came across a construction project: a crane lifting very large sheets of plate glass up to a penthouse.

On this day four years ago (day 404): Kimball declaims. I re-edited November 23, 2010 and selected a “look up” picture from this date, rather that the one posted four years ago.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – We’re here this weekend, unusually. We had some social commitments in New York which very much tied us up. I fooled around again with my Leica 280 mm R lens on my Leica T. Here’s a close up of Maria. Again, this combination works very well.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I spent most of the day on foot. After taking the tramway to Roosevelt Island I walked most of the length of the island, then across a bridge to Queens, then to the Socrates Sculpture Park on the East River, and finally to a subway stop and back home. The winter light was fabulous – I had a good day of photographs.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I don’t shoot with long lenses that often but I do like the combination of my Leica T, a couple of adapters, and my Leica R 280mm f4.0. This is a remarkable lens, given a new lease of life with the Leica T and its pretty good through the lens focusing. I’m enjoying experimenting with this lens shooting out my window. Here I’ve found a guy having a smoke on the roof of a building.

On this day five years ago (day 35): Old technology. This is a reshoot of day 28. I went back to Grand Central Terminal with the “bokeh king” (a 35mm Leica Summicron v.IV) lens and shot a much more energetic version of the pay phones image.

BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – This started as a travel day with a trip here from New York. You may remember that travel days aren’t my best: the hassles of travel make it difficult for me to concentrate on the visual. I ended up shooting a picture of my iPad with my iPhone. It’s not Caravaggio but it keeps the string alive.
