PINE PLAINS NEW YORK – I had a busy, fragmented day today. I’m driving up here on a weekly basis working on settling matters in an estate that I’m executor of. I don’t find much to inspire me in Pine Plains. Today I shot around with my iPhone 6.

Day 2183 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

Day 2183 of one picture every day for the rest of my life. — Pine Plains NY 2015

On this day four years ago (day 722): Guggenheim Museum in NY, Frank Lloyd Wright’s mid-50s masterpiece. We live just down the street from the Guggenheim so I see it almost daily but I’ve struggled photographing it. This is my favorite of the images that I’ve taken of it.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – We’re now in the run-up to next week’s trip to Tokyo and Hong Kong so I decided to shoot a Japanese vase with my new Leica Q compact camera. The Leica Q is a relatively compact camera with a lovely 28mm f1.7 fixed lens. It’s the most responsive point an shoot that I’ve ever owned. The lens’s lovely creamy bokeh is illustrated in the second shot of coleus gone to seed.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – May 12 is a seriously over-committed day for me: my schedule required me to attend all day meetings in both New York and Boston. This didn’t leave a lot of room for photography, so I resorted to my iPhone (always better than I expect), in this case shooting a crumpled sheet of paper from my schedule. The string is alive; long live the string. Consider today’s output as a foil to my productive yesterday.

Day 2035 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 1670): Rockefeller Plaza.

WARREN CONNECTICUT – Shooting around the house today. Again. And the local convenience store. Again.

Day 2025 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this day five years ago (day 199): Early morning through a 5″ Astro-Physics refracting telescope. Originally posted in color. Not bad. I’ll drag it out of the basement for another spin.

ANTIGUA – Well let’s see here. Hmmm . . . I’ve got a couple of beach themed images here today: a shell and a beach. Taken with my Leica Monochrome and 18mm lens.
