February brings in the first measurable snow of the season for The City, and it is just a dusting at best. Though the pier showed a little build up of a quarter inch the streets, and sidewalks remain clear.
I’ve enjoyed my morning coffee, and breakfast. Then out for a walk before getting a few projects done. On the top of the list is to come up with a way to secure the dark box in windy conditions. Then I have some silver nitrate that needs some filtering, as well as a little organization of gear, and supplies. Then for the rest of the day I’ll settle down with a book, or get out some road maps and dream.
Screwed in a small bronze pad eye. Will use this, along with the Orange Screw, and a bit of line, to secure the box.Silver nitrate ready for filtering. Goggles, and gloves!
A New York based photographer who still shoots film. Born, and raised in New England, and living the last thirty years in midcoast Maine, I took a job as Shipkeeper aboard the Wavertree at South Street Seaport Museum in the Winter of 2016/17.
On my off days I find myself exploring the City with a camera at hand. At the moment I am shooting with a Mamiya RB67, but recently acquired an 8x10 Kodak Master View, with the hopes of doing some wet plate portrait work.
