NEW YORK NEW YORK – Still shooting with the tiny 28mm Summaorn lens, a Leica re-issue of a lens introduced in 1955. It really has rekindled my interest in this focal length, which I’ve been neglecting for a while. Good light in Manhattan (which is covered by dirty snow drifts – the residue of the blizzard) and an image of an image.
Day 2,710 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – I had meetings in Boston today, and then took the Acela back down here. I prefer the train to flying, but there is a downside: on the New York end you end up at Penn Station. I got my images of the day outside of Penn Station as the light was failing. I generally travel with my Leica Monochrom and a single lens.
By the way there was some confusion about my post for March 6. I’m writing this in Connecticut (on March 14 – remember that I post with a week’s delay from the date of the image) and my image for March 6 is on my computer in New York. I’ll sort it out when I get back to New York later this week.
Day 2,701 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS – I got out on the street for an hour today with my Leica Monochrom and 50mm Summicron Asp. lens. The light was only ok so I settled for an abstraction. This really is an abstraction – it’s a “look up” turned on its side. It’s a commentary on the architecture that you literally can’t tell which way is up.
Day 2,700 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – A prolific day. I took time to slow down and shoot. The light in Manhattan was lovely. I wasn’t fighting the cold, a cold, equipment issues or anything else. Leica Monochrom and 50mm Summicron Asp. lens.
