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

At The Stroke of Midnight...

52Frames - Week 29 - Common Object

2022_CLondon52w29:  ARTIST SPOTLIGHT:  Alfred Hitchcock

From the C.London website:  "Probably the most famous silhouette is that of Alfred Hitchcock. A master of storytelling, he uses light and shadows to create tension and further the narrative. If you haven’t seen any Hitchcock films, you’re in for a lot of fun this week. While watching your choice film, notice the lighting and how it’s adding to the overall experience. This is your inspiration for this week."


At The Stroke of Midnight...
Hitchcock often used ticking clocks in his films.  In this image, I applied directional lighting and a strong shadow reminiscent of the Hitchcock silhouette to create tension as the time approaches midnight.

This image is the second 2Fer of the year, fulfilling both challenges with a single photo.
