WARREN CONNECTICUT – A rainy day. I guess this is what we’ve been saving for. Out with my Monochrom and 18mm lens catching rain and fog with a wide lens. Visually it’s hard to make headway against the sameness of days like this. Here are three tries:
On this day one year ago: Maria in repose.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Here are three “prints” of the same image taken with my Leica S2 medium format camera. The first version is as it comes from the camera, that is in fairly attractive color. The second is how I saw it when I shot it. Not literally in black and white but with the red leaves standing out as if they were brighter than the rest of the scene. And finally an alternative interpretation reading the read leaves as dark. I prefer the second version.
On this day one year ago: Another look up.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Here’s a gallery of Fall color images. It’s Sunday so we’re going back to the city and by the time we’re back here next weekend the leaves will be gone. So with any luck you won’t have to put up with oranges, yellows and reds much longer. Fall is almost over. I promise to get back into my monochromatic groove once the weather turns ugly. All images with my Leica S2 medium format camera and a 70mm or 24mm lens. This thing is irresistible this time of year.
On this day last year: Terry Tanner’s corn field.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – More Autumn color . . . in color. Taken with my Leica S2 medium format camera and 24mm lens.
Something to relieve the color boredom: another experiment with the document scanner app on my iPhone:
On this day one year ago: Bathroom.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – I drove up here this morning – my first time in Connecticut in over a month (apart from a flash trip to fetch Basil). Boy do I need this. I missed the most beautiful month of October in New England history, and arrive here today a driving rain. That’s the first image. Oh well. It cleared up later so I caught up with the end of the fall color. All taken with my medium format Leica S2.
On this day last year: la Durée.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Fall captured with my Leica Monochrom and Luxochron lens.
On this day last year: Leaf season.
I took a picture on the same spot yesterday – it’s very appealing this time of year – but with a less wide lens (the Luxochrom) and using selective focus to emphasize the birches. Which do you prefer?
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Some color today because it’s . . Autumn. Taken with my Leica M and Luxochron lens.
On this day last year: traffic control box.
