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

Jonathan

Jonathan

Via Flickr:
At the corner of Powell & Geary, he was perched up against the street light with a sign and cup. I asked him if he heard of the $2 Portrait project and he said it sounded familiar. After my explaining it, he agreed to participate. “Hmmm…my story….I don’t know where to start”, he said. After a short conversation, I learned that Jonathan is 42 or 43 years old (he couldn’t remember for sure) and was born and raised in San Francisco. He lives on the street and after pointing to a rolling office chair all loaded up with corrugated cardboard, he chuckled and said that was his mobile home.

Jonathan is a musician and trying to collect enough money to get his instruments out of hock so he can play on the street. He claims to play strings and wind instruments proficiently, which he learned on his own. Jonathan used to play in several bands and he claims they kicked him out because he was too good; even better than the other members at their own instruments. After asking me if I got some good photos, I gave him $2 and told him I wanted to hear him play some day.
