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

2023_CLondon52_September: Exploring Genres

From the C.London website: "This month, let's dive into exploring different photography genres. From landscapes to wildlife, documentary to sports, we're about to broaden our skills and capture amazing stories. Who knows, maybe you’ll find a new passion. Or whatever the opposite of passion is."

1.  Landscape
Nature provides all sorts of visual illusions.  This rock face is no exception.

2.  Documentary/Photojournalism
Former Allstate Insurance Corporate Campus
Northbrook, IL

I photographed this scene on 8/31/23, the day the September prompts were released to Patreon members.  Turns out it foreshadowed an article  published on September 3rd in the Chicago Tribune that discussed the replacement of corporate campuses with logistics and data centers.

I had to travel 1,000 miles for this photo.  Was hoping for something more exotic, but the deadline was approaching.
