WARREN CONNECTICUT – Well now . . . comparing this year’s picture with last year’s there seems to be a theme. It’s cold here in Warren. Especially in the winter. There’s ice everywhere. This year I shot it with my Monochrom and 24mm Summilux lens. I decided to include two of them. I have more pictures of ice available if you’re curious about the topic.
On this day last year: Winter in Connecticut. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and a 1945 vintage Carl Zeiss Jena f1.5 Sonnar lens.
WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT – New Preston Cemetery. This is on the road from our house to the hardware store so I stop here for photo ops frequently. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and 135mm APO Telyt lens. I don’t often shot long buy in this case I liked the perspective compression and selective focus.
Ice – more on this in a few days.
On this day one year ago: Stubble Field
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Boxing Day. A major holiday in England but not here. We’re having a Boxing Day party nonetheless for fifty or so people, so my day is packed with preparations. I don’t usually photograph at parties that we give because it interferes with interacting with guests. I caught this on the road to our house with my Leica Moncochrom and 50mm Noctilux lens.
On this day last year: Blizzard. Nice images from a year ago taken with my Monochrom and 18mm Leica SEM lens.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – This is more like it. Children and grandchild have arrived so the pace has picked up. Basil the Norwich Terrier seems to be in the middle of everything, looking for food in the Christmas wrappings.
On this day last year: Luke’s junkyard.
WARREM CONNECTICUT – Another example of the problem of posting a week late. This iPhone image, which I am actually posting on New Years day, looks pretty stale. Our children are arriving tomorrow so not much going on people-wise.
On this day last year: Morris CT Congregational Church. Shot with my Leica Monochrom and Noctilux lens.
WARREN AND ROXBURY CONNECTICUT – Another foggy, winter day shot with my Leica Monochrom and 135mm APO Telyt lens – two frames stitched. Later, a party with the same camera and Noctilux lens.
On this day last year: New old lens.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – One weather options this winter seems to be heavy rain and fog. These are actually pretty good conditions for landscape photography. Here are three images taken with my Leica Monochrom and 1958 Dual Range Summicron lens.
Om this day last year: Jasper Johns.
