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 no different. My main photography goal for the year is listed in the January submission of the 2024 C.London 52 Week Photography Challenge. Content this year will work towards that goal in addition to my general shooting. Check out my website "About" page to learn more. The website is at www.jeffmarcowitz.photography 

All content posted here in the blog will also be on the website, however with a subscription to the blog, you'll continue to receive the email notifications.

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

12 Miles to go for a 100 Mile Weekend!

12 Miles to go for a 100 Mile Weekend!
Via Flickr:
3rd leg of a 100 mile weekend; Lincolnshire to Independence Grove. Just after taking this shot, the rear tire went flat. No CO2 adapter and no pump. 3/4 mile walk to the nearest gas station to get air into the new tube. And then, a successful finish.

Zack

I saw him sitting on the corner by Union Station strumming his ukulele with his hat out on the sidewalk. I stopped to listen. When he finished his song, we started talking.

Zack is not homeless. In fact, he's on his way to make a gazillion dollars. He hails from Asheville, NC, just graduated from UNC with a degree in software engineering and is just passing through Chicago on his way to Seattle by train where he's going to look for a job.

We talked for a short while longer and he let me take some shots for the $2 Portrait project. I put the bills in his hat and wished him luck.
