Old Snow

Brooklyn New York

Some dirty snow, from the same January 2004 trip to Brooklyn mentioned in the last couple of posts. Notice how the Dimage A-1 lens resolved the snow in the background into lovely circles of confusion.

New York

We’re still in the archive here, but at this point, Autumn, 2003, I’ve just decided digital has really arrived and I’ve bought the Minolta Dimage A-1, a “prosumer” all-in-one, 5 MP digital camera with a flip-up rear screen, built-in flash, 28-200mm (equivalent) lens – a camera I really loved. At this point, I haven’t yet learned about Raw and I’m still shooting jpegs straight out of the camera.

Guggenheim

Looking down

Guggenheim Museum, New York

The Guggenheim is such a designed space that one can hardly look in any direction without seeing an abstract composition. I never fail to take such pictures at each visit.

Deep Listening

Rubin Museum, New York

Went to See the Henri Cartier-Bresson show at the Rubin Museum: India in Full Frame – very impressive work as usual. then made our way down the central, spiral staircase (last post) to see the other exhibits.
