I have been posting to this blog for over 14 years, each year reporting on accomplishments over the prior year and goals for the new year.

In 2025 and beyond, 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 

The Project W pages on the website will be 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

Of course during an organized photowalk in Chicago, the rain would intervene...which actually created some good photo ops.

Iconic "L"

While spending a couple of days earlier in June shooting photos with photography friends visiting Chicago from out of town, we did a photography tour with Teresa Peek - Tour Through a Lens (https://www.tourthroughalens.com). Teresa took us to this location where the "L" appears to turn in on itself.

As a local, I couldn't believe I'd never seen nor heard of this shot. Also, being a local, I could not pass up the opportunity to capture it myself.  See the BTS shots below where I'm hanging out of the parking structure with camera in one hand.
