Found this pic in my storage. I think its on this website in black and white. I played with it a bit today and brought out the color. I think it deserves to be shown in its new version. Shot in 2014 with a Fuji 100s, ISO 1600 23mm f/16 at 1/100 sec.

A Strange Look at the Alamo
Color photo, Leica D-Lux Type 109, Outdoors, Parks, Photography, Street PhotographyWhen shooting street photos, I usually prefer black and white. However, there are times when the color just needs to be shown. Such is the case here in “A Strange Look at the Alamo”. The colors were just too beautiful to leave out. This was shot at Iso 200 F/11 at 1/200 sec. I was using my Leica D-Lux Type 109 at approximately 12.1 mm. The name of the photo is a reference to the look of the police officer staring in my direction.
If You Don’t Ask, You’ll Never Know
Color photo, Leica D-Lux Type 109, New York City, NYC, Outdoors, Parks, PhotographyWashington Square Park is my favorite place to capture interesting moments. You often find people making art, performing or just hanging around. So many interesting people in New York City…so many! It was a beautiful day today, so I took out my Lecia D-Lux Type 109 and hit the streets. This was the only shot I liked today. 35mm at F/11 at 1/200 SEC. ISO was set on auto (320). I like capturing artistic people caught up in their work. This guy clearly was focused.
Perched Above the Water
Art, Black and White, Leica D-Lux Type 109, New York City, NYC, Outdoors, Parks, Street PhotographyI hadn’t taken my camera out for a walk in a long while. I’ve got to be better about getting out and about. On this day, I took my Lecia D-Lux Type 109. It’s currently my favorite walk around camera. I found this interesting lady sitting on the fountain in Washington Square Park. I took this shot right before she spotted my lurking near her. It’s now one of my favorites.
Come Fly With Me
Beach, Black and White, Child, Child Photography, Leica D-Lux Type 109, Models, Photography, portrait, Street PhotographyI was down the shore with family and we decided to fly a kite. Needless to say, the children with us didn’t like us adults playing with a toy, so they took it from us. The result is this photo taken while laying on my back in the sand. Perspective can always make a photograph beautiful and interesting. Shot with my Leica D-Lux Type 109.
Ana and the Sunset
Art, Beach, Color photo, Landscapes, Leica D-Lux Type 109, Outdoors, Photography, Street PhotographySomewhere near Naples, we watched the sunset. I captured this moment with my friend on the beach. Hundreds of awful photos that evening and this one gem.
Lost in Thought
Art, Beach, Color photo, Leica D-Lux Type 109, Models, People, Photography, portrait, Street PhotographyMy dear friend had suffered a tremendous loss. I caught him staring out at the ocean, it’s clear his heart is broken. Photography should capture “moments”. This one did, albeit a sad and tragic moment.
