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

We'll Be Back

We'll Be Back
Since the beginning of our 15 day trip to Israel on 10/27 through the end of November, I've posted a daily photo depicting a part of this wonderful country. This is the last photo I'll post in this series so I can turn my attention to finishing our Israel book.

This shot is taken from Old Jaffa looking back on Tel Aviv on 11/8/14.

Walking back to the hotel on the last evening of our trip, this sign struck a chord.  I can't read the Hebrew part, but the English part speaks to how I feel about this amazing country.
