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

Marisol

Marisol
52Frames - Week 4 - Portrait of a Stranger

I don't know squat about posing people for portraits.  So when I approached Marisol and asked for a photo, I was not confident about getting anything that didn't look contrived.  Out of 20 shots, I deemed 3 worthy of consideration.  Of the 3, only 1 was posed.

This chosen photo was a lucky capture.  As I was departing, she leaned out of her lifeguard station and I instinctively raised my camera and shot.  This was the least contrived shot of any, and my favorite because it was genuine.

Ricoh GRIIIx @ f5.6 1/1000 50mm equiv ISO 200
