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

Metra Station
Northbrook, IL

My grandson loves trains. Today we took him on a short train excursion traveling 5 stations each way with lunch in between. Eyes wide open the whole time, sharing his observations with excitement and asking tons of questions made for an awesome day.

Reflections By The Sea

Reflections By The Sea
2022_CLondon52w22: Self-Portrait

From the C.London website: "Oh no. The dreaded self-portrait. Listen, I’m the first to hate having the lens turned on myself. That said, years back I forced myself to become comfortable with it by doing a 365 day self-portrait project. And I learnt a lot. For this week you are the subject. Be as literal or creative with this as you’d like."

While on vacation in Cancun, I took the opportunity to make a selfie in advance of the challenge week. With a backdrop of the ocean, reflections of the infinity pool and time on my hands, I played around with high key and selective color.
