ANTIGUA – We’re down here for a long weekend, getting away from some pretty miserable weather in New York. Traveling with my new Sony A7riii, which I’m shooting exclusively through the end of January to get some feel for its peculiarities.
Day 2,976 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year (day 2,611): Christmas Trees
ANTIGUA – Nothing consequential today – more work shooting wide open experimenting with bokeh. Shot with my Leica Monochrom and 50mm Summicron Asp. lens.
Day 2,732 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day four years ago (day 1,271): Smithsonian Art Museum
ANTIGUA – I’m doing further experiments with “bokeh”, the quality of the out of focus portion of a lens. The hokeh of my 50mm Leica Summicron Asp. isn’t bad at f/2.0.
Day 2,731 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day two years ago (day 2000): Paris. Yawn.
ANTIGUA – We hung out on the beach today, with me scrambling a bit to find a suitable image. The first image is Maria in her natural habitat shot with my Leica Monochrom and 50mm Summicron Asp. with a neutral density filter to permit shooting wide open to isolate the foreground.
Day 2,730 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day three years ago (day 1,634): Lake Waramaug
ANTIGUA – Day two in a Caribbean Paradise. I’m starting to get my photographic bearings. Still shooting with a 10mm Voigtlander super wide lens on my Leica Monochrom – still a ways to go in terms of producing interesting images.
Day 2,729 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day three years ago (day 1,633): More fog
ANTIGUA – Shaky first day here. I’m not at my best in the tropics. I’m shooting very wide (10mm) in hopes of breaking a dull routine.
Day 2,728 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day six years ago (day 537): 1930
ANTIGUA – The sky was startling this morning after heavy rains last night. I shot about 160 degrees of sunrise, stitching five frames. I’ve included the final image and the the middle frame below.
