MANHATTAN – Look up at 87th Street and Lexington Avenue. Shot with my Leica M10.
Day 3330 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date nine years ago (day 43 of one photograph every day): Cabbage shot with my digital Leica and a Carl Zeiss lens from 1945.
MANHATTAN – This morning I did a review of my work for the past few years and decided that I like the angular perspectives a lot, so I’ll be capturing them when I see them for the next few weeks. Shot with my Leica M10-P.
Day 3319 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date two years ago (day 2589 of one photo every day): Big Rock Boston MA shot with my Sony A7rii and lovely 25mm Zeiss Batis lens. The fact that it’s fall and I’ve used yellow filtration in converting to black and white gives this image an infrared look. Compare my post of a big rock in Warren CT of two years ago: Big Rock Warren CT.
MANHATTAN – We were hit be an unseasonably early blizzard today. It was hell on traffic – the worse gridlock that I’ve ever seen here. But visually pretty good, so I’m back in my groove. All images shot with my iPhone.
Day 3318 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date eight years ago (day 396 of one photo every day): Helmsley Building Looking up at the Helmsley Building with my Leica M9 and 16mm Voigtlander lens. Re-cropped and re-processed from the original. The ability to go back and re-imagine images is one of the key advantages to shooting raw files and preserving them with non-destructive edits.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I wandered the Upper West Side today with my Sony A7riii and the well-thought-of 24-90 native Sony zoom. I usually don’t like zooms but this one performs well. The real issue with it is that it’s Bokeh (the quality of the out of focus parts of images) is “edgy”, which I don’t like at all – I prefer “creamy.”
Day 3302 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
)n this date four years ago (day 1841 of one photo every day): Marine Corps reunion
WINGDALE and MANHATTAN – I was all over the place today, driving up to Warren CT to run an errand in the town hall (which is only open Monday-Thursday when we normally aren’t there) and then back to New York.
Day 3282 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date five years ago (day 1456): Tomatoes. This was taken with the first version of the Leica Monochrom and the 50mm Leica APO-Summicron lense (the Luxocron); I loved the rendering of this lens five years ago and it’s still in daily use.
MANHATTAN – It’s Halloween here on the Upper East Side. Not much going on – I’m feeling dull.
Day 3281 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date four years ago (day 1820 of one photograph every day): Site of the former St. Vincents Hospital
MANHATTAN – One of the themes that I’m exploring is how persistent plant life is in Manhattan – stuff grows everywhere despite the hostile urban environment.
Day 3275 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date eight years ago (day 353 of one photograph every day): Methodist Church shot eight years ago with my Alpa TC camera and Phase One digital back.
