NEW YOEK, NEW YOEK – The meds are slowly taking effect. I managed to get out of bed for a walk around Bryant Park and the 42nd Street Library, fairly early in the day before the heat drove me off of the street. Here are some images with my Alpa TC and a 35mm Schneider lens and a digital back.
On this day one year ago: Poets’ Walk in Central Park.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – I’d be lying if I reported that the meds instantly made me feel better. The Lyme thing drags on. I did make it out of the apartment to run some errands in our neighborhood, Carnegie Hill, where I caught this with my Leica M9 and a 24mm Summilux lens.
On this day one year ago: restoring and reframing.
PORTLAND MAINE – Well a lot is going on. Maria has left for Tanzania where she’s joining a group of alpha women who are climbing Kilimanjaro. No kidding. She’s not the least bit crunchy and is more at home in Pucci than SEI, but she’s taken this on as a challenge and we’re very proud of her. Francesca and I went to Portland Maine for a wedding. I captured “1904 Workingmen’s Club,” which is now the home of a credit union, with my Panasonic GH2. I brought my Alpa but failed to put a CD card in the bag – I need to put together a checklist for it.
On this day one year ago: Local Law 10 work.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – I met Lance Shad of Digital Transitions and we walked over to the High Line. I captured this image on the way with my Alpa TC, Schneider 35mm xl lens and 60 meg Hasselblad back.
On this day on year ago: Washington Square.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Back home from Boston. I actually feel almost fine for the first time in over a week. I grabbed my Leica M9 and a few lenses and headed out to explore the second section of the High Line that opened while we were in Italy. For some reason I was in the moment and “on” – some fairly good work after a week of blah. Here are some samples, all taken with my M9 and a 24mm Summilux lens.
Someone left a Post-it note on the High Line. It says, in lovely cursive script, “The most popular US pet name is ‘Max’.”
A perennial border:
On this day last year: Boston Bus Terminal.
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – I managed to get myself to Boston for a day of meetings, despite being still slightly under the weather. I managed to find an hour to walk around the World Trade Center. Taken with my Panasonic GH2 and a 14mm pancake lens.
On this day one year ago: view from Centolire.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – So I took the subway downtown to return the IQ 180 to Digital Transitions. They are on 35th just off of Fifth Avenue so this gave me a chance stalk one my favorite icons, the Empire State Building, in very interesting light with my Leica M9 and a 90mm lens. Three frames stitched.
On Fifth Avenue:
On this day last year: Festival
