WARREN CONNECTICUT – In most of the Northern Hemisphere April is a sensational month. Think Spring full on in Hyde Park, London. But not in rural New England. This is the muddy month. The month of dirty snow as banks and drifts melt, concentrating whatever besides snow is there. Here you go with two images, as always taken with my Leica Monochrom.
Day 2003 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 177):
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Another cold and blustery day with a threat of snow. Not much of an incentive to gat out and photograph.
Day 1,977 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 151): Citibank.
LYME ROCK CONNECTICTUT – I stopped here in terrible weather to take some pictures on our way to dinner in Sheffield Massachusetts. Don’t the weather gods know that it’s the middle of March? I had trouble editing these so I’m including three images from today.
Day 1,976 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.
On this day four years ago (day 515): Bloomberg building. Converted from the color image that I showed four years ago.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Another snow covered day, but at least today we have some sunlight.
Day 1,970 of one picture every day for the rest of my life.
On this day four years ago (day 509): Weston. A Cole Weston print. One of my favorite images. Question: How did Clarice get into this position without leaving any marks in the sand? Original posted in color. As usual the black and white image is stronger.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – March is a really disappointing month here. The vernal equinox, the first day of Spring, happens in March, but Spring is nowhere to be found here. Three frames stitched, taken with my Leica Monochrom and “Luxochron” lens.
Day 1,969 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 143): Cholla captured at Joshua Tree National Park. This image was originally posted in color – back when I was shooting Hasselblad medium format. It’s much stronger converted to grayscale, which illustrates that I really do imagine in black and white.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Winter fatigue is fully evident here. Will the snow ever go away? As usual, taken with my Leica Monochrom camera and a 50mm lens – in this case three frames stitched.
Day 1,963 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.
On this day four years ago (day 502): Grid. The view from the cafeteria at Dewey, a now defunct law firm. As originally posted this image was in muted color; I’ve since converted it to black and white.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – For some reason today I’ve developed a Zen relationship with the ever-present snow. I’ll be surprised if this doesn’t go down in history as the coldest and most snow-covered February in this area in decades.
Day 1,955 of one photo every day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year (day 1,590): Food truck.
