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 Stand

The Stand
2022_CLondon52w7: ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Edward Hopper

From the C.London website: “Edward Hopper is known for his slice of life paintings.  You may already be familiar with one of his most recognizable work, Nighthawks, depicting into the window of a corner diner from the outside.  An expert in realism, Hopper creates scenes of everyday life in a captivating and thought-provoking way.

This week look over Hopper’s images and draw inspiration from subdued drama, creating an image which shows the normal in a captivating way.

While visiting a close friend, and chasing the Edward Hopper diner theme, we went to a local Encino, CA hot dog joint.  I was able to concoct a Chicago Hot Dog and capture an Edward Hopper inspired image.
