I have been posting to this blog for over 13 years, each year reporting on accomplishments over the prior year and goals for the new year.

2024 is a little different. I’ve decided that this Blog will be my main photography communication vehicle. Content will be varied and in the spirit of my approach to photography as described on the "About" page of my website at www.jeffmarcowitz.photography 

Unlike the past, all content posted here in the blog will NOT also be on the website Project W pages. I intend to make the Project W pages more of a curated collection of work representing the “Best Of” images posted here on the Blog. With a subscription, you'll continue to receive an email (with content) whenever I post to the Project W Blog.

Thanks to all of you who have followed this photo blog for many years and welcome to any newcomers. My hope is that the images and stories are interesting and thought-provoking as I continue this creative journey. As always, comments, critiques and suggestions (here and the website) are welcome and appreciated as they often lead to new ideas and inspiration.

Thank You.
Jeff

Robert


This afternoon (Friday), I looked out my office window and there he was again - standing in his regular spot.  I walked down to see him.  He was friendly, I was more comfortable.  He was hungry, I bought him two cheeseburgers.  I asked his age, he asked mine.  When I asked to take some more photos, he smiled.  Robert is 50 years old and has some family in Kentucky.  He lives in a shelter and takes the bus downtown.  He became disabled from a car accident 20 years ago and hasn't been able to work.  We talked a few minutes more, I gave him multiples of $2 and wished him a good weekend.  He smiled again and said, "Thank you and G-d bless."

3/25/11 - Week 12
Last shot not with this week's theme.  I was compelled to finish this short series.
