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

Frank

Frank
It was early evening and I was walking around the Old Town Square in Albuquerque.  I spotted him on a bench looking a little forlorn and appearing to need some conversation.  I told him about the $2 Portrait project and he lit up and agreed to participate.  Frank has a rugged look and I was surprised to learn that he was not from the southwest, but rather from Chicago.

Frank is 71 years old and has been in the Albuquerque/Santa Fe area for only a week.  Twice married, Frank is hoping that his second wife will take him back and that one of his three sons will return his calls.  He told me that he had a little bit of savings but it was being quickly depleted by his family.  Being a former principal of a grade school, Frank is hoping that his teacher pension can survive his love for younger women.  Frank told me his second love is a daily Starbucks and he’s hoping to find a job as a barista to sustain his relocation.

I told Frank I couldn’t help him with the younger women but would be happy to get him a Starbucks.  When I returned, he was still on the bench.  I gave him the Starbucks and $2; he shook my hand, thanked me and said “Ride ‘em Cowboy!
