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

Monsieur Violin

Monsieur Violin
Via Flickr:
Lin and I were strolling through the Marais, along tight streets and beneath arcades where sounds are amplified in volume and richness. I heard violin notes in the distance and as we got closer, the music became more engaging. We passed by the arcade, into a wonderful square called Place des Vosges. Despite the activity in the square, the violin resonated.

I approached him and listened for a while longer, pointed to my camera and he nodded. I asked his name but his accent was thick and I did not catch it. After placing a 2 euro coin into his case, I returned to the square and we continued our stroll.

The street music is different and wonderful in Paris.
