ROUTE 202 IN NEW MILFORD, CONNECTICUT – Farmstand.  This was late in the day; I slept poorly the night before so I lost the morning light.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Up early for a lovely sunrise.  We’ve controlled the underbrush in a wooded area to create a park-like setting.  The over-the-top colors are  . . . well . . . what it looked like.  Image taken with a Leica M9 and 24mm Summilux – three images stitched.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Late afternoon on East 56th Street – a reflection of the AT&T building off of the facade of the Trump Tower.  Shot with my Leica M9 (it found its way back to me) and a 24mm Summilux.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Fabulous late afternoon light in midtown, with light reflected from buildings adding nuance.  I’m shooting with my backup Leica, and M8.2, because I left my M9 at Gary and Diana’s the previous evening (symptomatic of wine consumption).  I had a number of good images to choose among.  This is Mies van der Rohe’s iconic Seagram building – part of my effort to do a new take on iconic structures.  I have an ongoing project on the Seagram building and the plaza formed by it and the Racquet and Tennis Club (McKim Mead and White) and Lever House to the northwest (the “Hello Kitty’s” come from there).  Image taken with my M8.2 and a 90mm lens – three images stitched in Photoshop.
