NEW YORK NEW YORK – This evening we went to a celebration at the Knickerbocker Club for Words Without Boarders, a not-for-profit that Maria is involved with. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summicron v. 4 lens (the Bokeh King).
On this day last year: the Chrysler Building, a favorite haunt of mine.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I’ve taken a break from shooting with my new old lens. Here we are at a small Holiday dinner with some old friends, shot with my Leica Monchrom and 50 Summilux Asph. lens.
On this day last year: Messing around with my iPhone.
SOUTH KENT CONNECTICUT – A holiday party with some friends in a neighboring town. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summilux Asph. lens.

On this day last year: Barking Dog.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Our local Presbyterian church in New York, Brick Church, celebrates the beginning of Advent every year with a ceremony on the Church steps lighting the trees all up and down Park Avenue, and singing carols. We’re members of Brick but not currently that active because of our weekends in Connecticut. When our children were younger we were very active – I joked at that time that at one time or another I held every non-paying job at the Church. A lovely community. Anyway I took my Leica Monochrom and Noctilux lens to this year’s carol sing.
On this day one year ago: Still life with iPhone.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Francesca had a birthday party at Frankies Spuntino in Brooklyn. Sensational evening. Here are two images taken with my Leica Monochrom and Noctilux lens, and one with my iPhone.
On this day last year: Fairway.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I spent the morning working at my day job and got away in the afternoon in time to stand in line to vote. We had some family and friends over to watch the returns. By 11:00 PM I still hadn’t gotten my picture, so i finally shot the television with Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summilux lens.
On this day one year ago: Not much of an image.
NEW YOKR NEW YORK – A good day with my camera. We had dinner with Patrizia Chen and some friends of hers. I’m getting even better results from my Leica now that I have glasses that correct my astigmatism. Before Patrizia’s dnner I stopped at Ladurée, an outpost on Madison Avenue of the French cathedral of macaroons. All images taken with my Leica Monochrom and 35mm Summilux lens.
On this day last year: Ceiling. I was struggling here.
