NEW YORK NEW YORK – More with the 18mm lens. I’ve decided to shoot straight up for a week. I mean really straight up – using a spirit level in the camera’s accessory shoe to orient it. Here’s one in our courtyard, again with the Leica Monochrom and 18mm Super-Elmar Asph.
On this day last year: James Beard Gala.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – On Park Avenue again very early in the morning walking to meetings. Later in the day a time out from meetings in a telephone room that I call the penalty box. Shot with my baby Sony, which does the job but is a bit short on charisma.
On this day last year: Boston. Not much on an image. Meh squared.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Walking down Park Avenue very early this morning (6:00 AM . . . really) I spotted this very large number five in the window at the Phillips auction gallery. This sort of display is thought to burn a work for serious collectors – I wonder why Phillips did this?
On this day last year: rain drops.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – On the street with my baby Sony rushing from here to there.
On this day last year: Francesca’s party at the Frankies. Shot with my Monochrom and Noctilux lens.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – Busy day of meeting. I need a compact camera kit so I’ve strapped my 35mm Summicron v.IV onto my Leica Monochrom. This lens is called the “Bokeh king” because of its attractive out of focus images. Here you go with some roses in the garden in front of St Barts on Park Avenue. By the way I’ve gotten a day or two behind my usual schedule for posting because of a quirky internet connection here. I’m working on it. By the way in editing this post I decided to toss in a few more images from around St. Barts (the church, not the island) – what the hell, let’s live it up.
On this day last year: Blizzard. A reminder that things can get nasty around here this time of year. When I searched this site for “Blizzard” I found more than a dozen images.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – As I said yesterday . . . back to a monochromatic world. Cab ride. Taken with my Leica Monochrom and 24mm Summilux lens.
On this day last year: Trees. Here’s some Autumn color without the color. Come on. Admit it. You like the splashy color ones better, don’t you.
NEW YORK NEW YORK – First day back I’ve taken exactly one picture (Monochrom with Luxochron lens):
On this day one year ago: Debris.
