WARREN CONNECTICUT – I got some good light on the fall foliage, which as usual is reproduced here in black and white because I shoot in black and white – with my Leica Monochrom camera and the wonderful Carl Zeiss 15mm ZM lens.
Day 2194 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 369): City Island cottage in Halloween dress.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – Still shooting with my Sony A7rii and an uncoated Carl Zeiss 5cm Sonnar lens from 1936. I’ve shot this tree before but it’s completely different through this lens, which produces transparent shadows but with good local contrast. The overall look amazes me. Autumn 2015 in living black and white.
Day 2180 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day two years ago (day 1450): Freedom Tower captured with my Leica Monochrom.
WARREN CONNECTICUT – A couple of things. First, as I write this I’m actually in Tokyo, soon moving on to Hong Kong. My posts may be a bit delayed but I’ll catch up when I get back to New York next week.
Second, Basil the Norwich Terrier made it into today’s image but it really isn’t a picture of him, so I’m not violating my “no pictures of pets or cute kids” rule.
Day 2151 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year (day 1786): Park Avenue divider

Day 2135 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day five years ago (day 309): Chyulu Hills, Kenya On the other hand, five years ago we were in an adventure.
WARREN CONNECTUCUT – I spent a good part of the day here shooting with my Leica Q. It’s a lovely little camera with a 24x36mm sensor and a fixed Leica 28mm f1.7 lens. This is probably Leica’s best 28mm, which provides the rationale for using this camera. The camera is compact and very, very fast. I’ve been experimenting with it using HDR technology – taking three frames and combining them to achieve extended dynamic range – then of course translating into black and white. The camera pops off three frames is a half second or so so it’s possible to do HDR hand held. I usually don’t like HDR images, so this really is an experiment. Here you ro
Day 2130 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day four years ago (day 669): Storm Over Manhattan
WARREN CONNECTICUT – I got up for sunrise this morning had had lovely light in a park-like area that we maintain here. As usual taken with my Leica Monochrom and Leica 50mm f2.0 Summichrom Asph. lens.
Day 2129 of one photograph every day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year (day 1764): Cap Rocas, Mallorca
