WARREN CONNECTICUT – I like this time of year. The light is crisp and variable. I spent some time today in the garden, which is more interesting to me from a photographic standpoint now than it is in the warmer seasons. Here are two images – I couldn’t decide between them. If you have any thoughts let me know. Both take with my Leica M9 and a 24mm Summilux lens. I’m shooting at f1.4 with a neutral density filter to explore the out of focus regions in these images.
. I guess that my attention goes to winter themes this time of year.
On this day one year ago: first snowstorm of the year.
NEW PRESTON CONNECTICUT – From its architecture this building (which houses youth activities for Washington CT) looks like a defrocked church – a church with its steeple removed. It’s quite close to the New Preston Congregational Church so I doubt that it was built on this spot – it was probably moved here after it was decommissioned. I’ve found no references to it on line – I’ll have to carry out more detailed research on the ground. Taken with my Leica M9 and a 35mm Summilux FLE lens. Two frames stitched.
On this date last year: Birches in early winter.
WARREN, CONNECTICUT – Warren’s “downtown” consists of the Rooster Tail Inn and four shops. One of the shops, Privet House, belongs to Richard Lambertson who has assembled a sensational collection of eclectic stuff. Travel and Leisure piece on downtown Warren. Anyway this is from Privet House’s substantial collection of things for dogs, Shot with my Leica M9 and my new 35mm Summicorn V. II.
On this date a year ago: Do follow this link for more information on this sad memorial.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – We had a very quiet day with our family, making, then eating, turkey hash. My recipe comes from the Old Drovers Inn in Duchess County New York, which was justifiably famous for it. The Old Drovers Inn is, alas, no more: RIP Old Drovers Inn.
The day started with a light rain and ground fog. I got this with my Leica and a 135mm APO-Telyt on a tripod.
On this date last year: Thanksgiving 2009.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Near the end of our family Thanksgiving dinner in Connecticut. Our daughter Francesca in a pensive moment.
On this date one year ago: Party in Bethlehem Connecticut.
