NEW YORK NEW YORK – I’ve added a new lens to my collection (I have lenses the same way that the women in my life have shoes): a 10mm full frame rectilinear lens from Voigtlander. This guy is really wide. No need to focus or use a view finder. Everything is in focus because of the extreme depth of field, and the framing of the image is . . . everything. Really fun.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I’ve finally gotten my second Monochrom body back from Leica where I had sent it for repairs over four months ago. So I’m shooting with two bodies and two lenses: my normal 50mm and the super wide 15mm Carl Zeiss.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – I shot wide today: I strapped my 15mm Carl Zeiss Distagon lens on to my Leica Monochrom today and took it for a ride (actually a walk) in the city. This thing really is very wide, is lovely to work with but is a handful, especially in bright sunlight because when it takes in the whole scene it also takes in the whole dynamic range. It’s actually a blast to shoot with.
Day 2511 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
