NEW YORK NEW YORK – You may remember that a couple of weeks ago (on June 4) I lost my pocket camera, a Sony RX 100 II, and the images recorded on it with near disastrous results. This is the day that my only image was an out-of-focus stairway, one of the crap images of all time. Well the Sony’s replacement, a Sony RX 100 III, has arrived so I’ll be shooting with it for the next week or so to sort out what its capabilities are. Let’s hope that I can hang on to it for a while.

Day 1,712 of one picture every day for the rest of your life.

I684 NEW YORK STATE – If you ever wondered what the back of the rest stop on I684 looks like, here it is. This is actually an attempt to be serious – it’s two frames stitched.

Day 1,711 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – We’re finally getting over a very late spring here. One of my theories of photography is that there are very occasionally moments when the light is exquisite – when this happens you should stop and photograph whatever is at hand, and it will be beautiful. We had one of the moments today so I shot a beanpole behind our house. From earlier in the day Baby V reading the paper with her dad and a plant in a perennial border. I could decide which to post here so I posted all three.

Day 1,710 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

NEW YORK NEW YORK and MARBLE DALE CONNECTICUT – It must be a summer Friday. The morning found me on Madison Avenue near home in the 90s running errands; lunchtime found us in Marble Dale stopped for a burger at a local roadside joint named Clamps. No McDonald’s here! Lovely light in both place captured with my Leica Monochrom and Luxochron lens.
