WARREN CONNECTICUT – Still photographing fall color without color. There was a moment of sensational light at sunrise. Captured with my Leica Monochrom and 50-year old Dual Range Suumicron (18mm Super Elmar in the case of the third image). These are some of the best images that I’ve gotten so far from the Monochrom.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – It’s the leading edge of leaf season up here in rural Litchfield County. Colors are fabulous. Of course I’m shooting with my Leica Monochrom, a black and white only camera, so I’m going to have to get creative. Autumn foliage in black and white. Pretty excentric, hun?
WARREN CONNECTICUT – More trees at our place in Connecticut – at least they aren’t birches. In the warm light at sunrise there’s a hint of fall color – a trailer for coming attractions. I’ve been shooting with my Leica Monochrom recently but went out this morning with my Leica M9 and 90mm Elmarit lens. I struggled with this lens yesterday but got better results today. Maybe it just takes practice. I focused my attention on a park-like area to the West of our house – an area that we created by mowing the underbrush in a stand of major maples and oaks. This is what they looked like in black and white and color:

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Another beautiful day in rural Northwestern Connecticut. We’ve turned the two or three acres nearest the house into a parklike setting, mowing around the mature oaks and maples. Three angles captured with my Leica Monochrom and my 1957 lens, a 50mm dual range Summicron.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – How about this: a long weekend! In Warren. I hacked around a bit with my Leica M9 and 18 mm Super Elmar lens. Great combination. Here’s some salad on the hoof:

WARREN CONNECTICUT – “So Woody, how do you feel about this rainy day?” Well not bad, actually, because we really need the water. Also the rain is a nice opportunity to explore some colors in a perennial board with my Fuji X-Pro 1.
