NEW YORK NEW YORK – I took a walk up Sixth Avenue today and found that not much was happening for me visually until I got to Bryant Park, where I hit a reflections jackpot. The light is usually interesting here, particularly if there is sunlight to play off of the Bank America building. This extends a theme that I’ve spent a lot of time on in this space – it’s interesting work (to my eyes) after a few days of dullish posts. Taken with my Leica Monchrom and 24mm Summilux lens.

On this day one year ago: Citigroup.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Today we sasa terrific performance of Verdi’s Masked Ball at the Metropolitan Opera. Actually I hated the production and loved the singing with Sondra Radvanovsky, Marcelo Álvarez and Dmitri Hvorostovsky leading the cast. I’m still buzzing from the performance almost a week later as I write this. Here’s a member of the audience with my iPhone. A break from my Leica Monochrom.

On this day last year: New Preston CT.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Well this is finally the last week of November, the busiest month of my year. I have a week of meetings and calls which is distracting me from the visual world. I found a few moments this morning to explore our living room with my Leica Monochrom and 50mm Dual Range Summicron lens.

On this day one year ago: Field.
