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

The Beard

The Beard

I was hanging out at the cable car turnaround at Powell & Market, watching "the dude", subject of a prior post.  Up walked Donald who lit up a cigarette right next to me.  With a smile, I told him to be careful so he doesn't light his face on fire.  We then got to talking about his beard (about a year old) and he told me some funny stories about how he is always being asked if he can be photographed.  I didn't let him down and asked if I could take a photo also, to which he readily agreed and then thanked me.

 We then spoke about a bunch of other topics including Chicago and Oprah Winfrey.

Donald was an articulate conversationalist and a very intelligent guy and I really enjoyed talking with him.   Another perfect example where looks are deceiving.

Submitted for ClicheSaturday.  HCS!
