NEW YORK NEW YORK – On Park Avenue again very early in the morning walking to meetings. Later in the day a time out from meetings in a telephone room that I call the penalty box. Shot with my baby Sony, which does the job but is a bit short on charisma.

NEW YORK NEW YORK and HUTCHINSON RIVER PARKWAY – I shot out the window while driving earlier today at the worlds ugliest cell tower, which is located at the pit stop on the Hutch. Then back home with Laura, Alexander and baby Victoria. I freshened up my collection of images of our granddaughter with my Leica S2 medium format camera.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Here are three “prints” of the same image taken with my Leica S2 medium format camera. The first version is as it comes from the camera, that is in fairly attractive color. The second is how I saw it when I shot it. Not literally in black and white but with the red leaves standing out as if they were brighter than the rest of the scene. And finally an alternative interpretation reading the read leaves as dark. I prefer the second version.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Busy day of meeting. I need a compact camera kit so I’ve strapped my 35mm Summicron v.IV onto my Leica Monochrom. This lens is called the “Bokeh king” because of its attractive out of focus images. Here you go with some roses in the garden in front of St Barts on Park Avenue. By the way I’ve gotten a day or two behind my usual schedule for posting because of a quirky internet connection here. I’m working on it. By the way in editing this post I decided to toss in a few more images from around St. Barts (the church, not the island) – what the hell, let’s live it up.

On this day last year: Blizzard. A reminder that things can get nasty around here this time of year. When I searched this site for “Blizzard” I found more than a dozen images.
