  • Fifty-Two Frames: Anthropormorphism

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Frozen in Time

    A chance shot on the morning of a camp costume party. A tiny moment that speaks volumes. Photography really is amazing… Week 28: Frozen in Time Even Superman needs a dad hug before starting his day.

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Holy

    It’s a holy week of sorts. The beginning of the 9 days. Ramadan. Jews fighting Jews at the kotel. Sounds pretty holy to me. Week 27: Holy/Sacred It’s actually quite easy to appreciate how man can stare up at the sun and decide it’s worthy of worship.

  • Fifty-Two Frames: HDR/Contrast

    It’s fair to say I don’t fully understand contrast in photography and didn’t really ‘get’ this week’s theme. The series of photos I actually worked on didn’t seem like contrast to me. But neither does this. Week 26: HDR/Contrast Here and there.  

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Portrait

    The one day my son did not wear his beloved black kippa to kindergarten was the one day I needed to take a portrait shot for Fifty-Two Frames. Divine intervention?

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Shot from a Phone

    This one was easy. I always shoot from my phone. These are the chocolate chip cookies I referenced earlier. They’re very much all gone now. Week 23: Shot from a Phone Celebrate diversity. Give every one a chance.  (Samsung Galaxy S3)

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Spirals

    My own theme of this last year’s writing course is untangling, de-coiling, unfolding myself to expose the insecurity, to face it, to poke it where it hurts, over and over. Now to climb back out of the spiral. Stand on the edge. Look further down the road. Week 22: Spirals Become unfurled. 

  • Fifty-Two Frames: On the Job

    Week 21: On the Job Re-tired.

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Light Experimentation

    Maybe this is a metaphor for where I am with my writing. I feel a bit battered. Maybe I just need to reach deeper and get burned in order to see the light. Maybe I need to ease up on the metaphors. Week 20: Light Experimentation Go for it.

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Imperfect

    Week 19: Imperfect Screw this.

  • Fifty-Two Frames: Perfect

    Last Thursday, on a morning walk, I noticed this lil guy on the pavement, off the highway. He (or she?) was just sitting there, taking it easy. Even when I bent down to take a few photographs it didn’t fly away. I decided that chillness served as an excellent lesson with which to end my…
