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

Rube Goldberg

Rube Goldberg
52Frames - Week 7 - Unexplored

Photo this week represents two explorations; one being the Fire Sprinkler Control Room in our condo building and the other being a new camera device I backed on Kickstarter, Arsenal 2.  The room is an array of pipes, pumps, valves and gauges and the brand new camera device provides a wrath of AI-based functions including exposure, focus stacking, time lapse and others.

The first image in the diptych is a single “foreground-focused” shot and the second is a composite of 6 shots automatically triggered and composited by the Arsenal 2 device.  While not my first choice on how to approach this week’s challenge, I still chalk it up as a successful streak-saver.
