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

Under the Adirondack
C.London52w11:  Harsh Shadows

From the C.London website:  "Strong shadows can create very graphic and strong images. For this week, I’d like you to find harsh shadows created by natural light, and compose an image around that. You may manipulate the scene in any way available to you to create the image you have in mind, but try and use found natural light if possible."

I was scrambling this week to get a challenge photo as there were very few opportunities where the sun was out.  Late in the afternoon yesterday, the sun broke through.  Although I was in the midst of a business meeting, I grabbed my camera and took a few shots out the sliding glass door to the balcony (thanks to the bluetooth AirPods).

My intent for this week was to shoot something graphic; a bridge, fence or something with strong geometry.  By pure chance, I was able to achieve that despite the “11th hour”.
