NEW YORK NEW YORK – I spent some time this afternoon with Lois Connor and Tom Gitterman walking through Lois’s show at the Gitterman Gallery. The gallery is in midtown in the lovely deco Fuller Building, so I spent some time on the sidewalk hunting for today’s image.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I visited a gallery on the far West Side with a group of friends from the ICP this evening. Photographing photo shows is not really that productive for me, but I caught a neighborhood auto repair shop on my way there. Not my best day ever.

On this day three years ago (day 722): Guggenheim. This on the other hand is one of my favorite images ever, and the only really satisfactory image that I’ve been able to make of the Frank Lloyd Wright Guggenheim Museum on Fifth Avenue.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – A quick note on equipment. Most of my work here is done with a Leica Monochrom, a classic Leica rangefinder camera that takes only black and white images. The lack of color information means that it produces roughly twice the resolution of normal digital camera – giving lovely, medium format film-like images. I shoot wide but most often keep a standard 50mm lens on the camera. I get wide by shooting multiple overlapping images and “stitching” them on a computer. Result is very large files that can be printed large. The large files and intense detail invest mundane subjects with an importance that is impossible to achieve with smaller files.

Today’s images is three frames stitched. I’ve taught myself how to stitch reliably without using a tripod.

Day 1,817 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
