NEW YORK NEW YORK – We had a period of very good light here this afternoon so I brought home a number of good images, shot with my Leica Monochrom. Fire escapes usually draw positive reactions on my Twitter feed. I’m showing three fire escapes today.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I spent a few hours today in good light shooting my Sony Alpha 7rii with thee excellent native Carl Zeiss lens. I actually like this combination a greet deal. I have it set up so that the view through the viewfinder is in black and white. Of course I have to covert the files to black and white in post, which adds significantly to processing time. The 42 meg files bring my older iMac in Connecticut to its knees. Overall a good day.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Veterans Day. There is an annual parade up Fifth Avenue. Here’s the NYPD marching band as well as some typical (for me) street stuff, including an entry for my ongoing alleys project. Today I’m back to shooting my Leica Monochrom and Luxocron lens.

Day 2218 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
