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

A Jewish Christmas Eve

2022_CLondon52w52:  Revisiting Goals

From the C.London website: "We’ve made it! 52 weeks later! Let’s revisit those initial goals. How did you fare? Are you feeling more confident in your own work? More focused on where you want to go from here? I hope it was a year of growth, new photography friends, and inspiration. 

For our final image, we’re going to recreate the image from either week one or week 26 (your choice!) I’d also love it if you accompanied that image with something you’ve gained from this experience. Congrats on making it through!"

I've chosen to recreate Week 26 which was focused on my goal of becoming a better visual storyteller.  However, with an 80 degree outdoor temperature swing, I have to tell a different story this week.

For many Jewish families, Chinese food on Christmas Eve has become a tradition.  Mine is no exception.  Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all those who celebrate.

And many thanks to Chelsea London for organizing this weekly challenge!
