NEW YORK NEW YORK – As I’ve gotten more deeply into this project (7 ½ years at this point), my work on my very good days has gotten better while my work on my so-so days hasn’t moved much. That leads to a sense of greater highs and lows than when I started this saga. Today, it turns out, was a high day. I went out looking to take advantage of the fact that the block to the West of Grand Central Terminal is vacant – actually a construction site – allowing light to hit the terminal, and allowing a view of the terminal, that hasn’t been possible for half a century. I actually came back with something quite different.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – More work on “bokeh”, the quality of the out of focus portions of the image. I’m getting lovely bokeh from my Leica 50mm Luxochrom stopped down a stop or two. Wide open it has the “nervous” bokeh typical of highly corrected lenses.

NEW YORK NEW YORK – Out and about today with my Leica Monochrom and a very special lens: a Leica 35mm Summicron version IV that was manufactured in 1982, the so-called “bokeh king”. This lens does indeed have fairly creamy bokeh (the character of the out of focus portions of images) so I shot subjects that provided an opportunity to demonstrate bokeh. You may remember that I’m reviewing my whole lens collection on the subject of bokeh.

Day 2,748 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.

On this day last year (day 2383): Red brick. Stitched from many frames.
