NEW YORK NEW YORK – This was a productive day. A bit of a surprise. I spent most of the day closeted away preparing for two client board meetings later in the week and finishing The Magic Mountain for a meeting of my book group tonight. Today’s images nonetheless aren’t bad and were plentiful enough that I found it difficult to edit them.

Day 1,796 od one picture every day for the rest of my life.

On this day three years ago (day 700): Francesca and me.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – More work with long lenses today. This time the Leica APO-Telyt M 135mm. This lens really does have a lovely signature. Both images today are two frames stitched.

Day 1,795 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

And finally:

On this day last year (day 1,430): Grass on a perfect early Autumn day.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Soe here I am experimenting with a Leica APO-Telyt 135mm lens. This lens has a legendary look and strong performance but it is the devil to use on a digital Leica M because the depth of focus is so thin and the 135mm frame in the rangefinder are small. I’ve put a 1.4x magnifier on the viewfinder and I’ve been practicing all day with focus, until I think I have it. Both images below are two frames stitched.

Day 1,794 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 1,429): Good urban light.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I found myself in an area on the far West Side of Manhattan that used to be called Hell’s Kitchen, did time as home for auto showrooms and repair shops, and is now morphing into a modern, densely packed residential area. Here’s an image of some construction in progress. The Manhattan apartment retail market is very tight for renters, but as all this space hits the market should we expect a bust?

Day 1,792 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
