WINGDALE NEW YORK – I drove over here today to drop Alexander off at the train station. This little hamlet is the home of the Harlem Valley Psychiatric Center, a vast property built by the State for the treatment of the mentally ill, which was closed in 1994. It’s genuinely spooky.

MANHATTAN – My hat inventory needs some help – I loose hats and summer Panama’s get tatty after a few years of use. So . . . I went to JJ Hat Center on lower Fifth Avenue to stock up. Since I don’t do selfies you’ll have to guess at what i bought.

MANHATTAN – Still shooting wide. A poor day for me visually – I had trouble getting into the moment.

On this date last year (day 2777 of one photo every day): Bokeh again. Shot last year with a Leica Q, a camera that I owned briefly and didn’t care for. It has a fixed 28mm lens, actually an excellent lens, but a focal length that I don’t care for because it’s the equivalent of an iPhone perspective and is accordingly “common”. As you will see the lens’s bokeh is slightly edgy.
MANHATTAN – An iPhone image from Sixth Avenue and 44th Street. The camera that you have with you is the best camera. This is the ICP’s learning center.
