MANHATTAN – For rent signs are popping up for retail spaces all over Manhattan. Shot with my Leica M10-P.
Day 3259 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date last year (day 2894 of one photo every day): Drone shot of Nettleton Hollow Road, Washington CT.
MANHATTAN – The Leica M10-P arrived today! I charged up the battery, strapped on my APO-Summicron 50mm lens (which I call the Luxochron – one of the lenses I didn’t sell) and went out to shoot some familiar territory. It’s great to be back shooting with a rangefinder – the frame lines really do change the way you see. I’ll be spending the next month or so getting familiar with this camera. The first image is a three frame stitch.
Day 3246 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date seven years ago (day 689): tree line Warren CT shot seven years ago with my medium format Phase One camera (subsequently sold). I’ve re-edited this image, completely re-imagining it.
MANHATTAN – More dullish work. I feel like I’m in a creative rut, which I really need to bust out of.
Day 3233 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date eight years ago (day 311 of one photo every day): Tanzania
MANHATTAN – Out with my Sony and not much is happening.
Day 3232 (repeating digits!) of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date last year (day 2867 of one photo every day): Eclipse, South Carolina
MANHATTAN – I walked up Third Avenue with my Sony A7riii today. The light turned interesting for a few moments.
Day 3231 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this date last year (day 2866 of one photo every day): Sunspots shot as a practice session for the eclipse that we saw on in South Caroline on day 2867.
LONG ISLAND CITY NEW YORK – I spent a good part of the day in Long Island City, the area in Queens just across from Randalls Island, shooting around the Pepsi sign. I was there seven or eight years ago when the area was a garbage strewn tidal mudflat. Now it’s a lovely waterfront park with luxury high rises with commanding views of Manhattan. All taken with my Sony A7riii.
Day 3225 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
Just another Manhattan skyline but I’ve been shooting 432 Park Avenue (the needle building in the center of the image) whenever I see it.
We’ll here you have it: color! I wasn’t able to make this image work in black and white – the grays all merged – and I like the angle so I’ve departed from my B&W only policy, for the first time in years.
On this date four years ago (day 1764 of one photo every day): Mallorca
