Fifty-Two Frames: Sound.
Here’s what I learned: Sound is tough to photograph. If you don’t want to be cliche. I got some cool shots of construction trucks mid-scooping and dropping dirt (I can’t remember how to say their names in English, aside from the names they have on Bob the Builder. Seriously.). But they didn’t convey the sound…

Fifty-Two Frames: Abstract.
I suppose this wasn’t 100% abstract photography, but as the concept of abstract photography comes to me as pretty abstract, I got lost in it. This was a product of last week’s cardboard box and toilet paper roll play time with the kids. Actually, some really cool photography is shooting through a paper roll with…

Fifty-Two Frames: Adventure.
On Friday, I was jogging and I noticed this little guy on the ground. There’s some kind of kindred spirit connection between me and snails. So to the confusion of the other runners/walkers, I stopped and bent down and started shooting with my phone – an HTC Desire (it’s all I had). It’s super exciting…

Fifty-Two Frames: Candid/Shoot from the Hip.
We had a good topic this week; the shame was, I wasn’t fully aware of it before the deadline was up. I mistakenly thought it was ‘street photography.’ And I wasn’t frequenting many crowded streets last week, so this was the closest I had. Turns it out, it worked out pretty well for what the…

Fifty-Two Frames: Desolate.
Twas the week before Passover, and all was too busy, …so I ended up forgetting to post that week’s Fifty-Frames photo. The theme embraced the calm before the storm, the serious quiet of Israeli streets – and supermarkets – before the big holiday family-size lock down. Week 14: Desolate. The calm before the chag.

Fifty-Two Frames: Contrast.
I got this at the very start of week 13. It was the Rami Levy in Beitar. …I had a dentist appointment scheduled for the next day. Week 13: Contrast. Probably more like irony… (and even the colors seemed to contrast).

Fifty-Two Frames: Birds.
One of the most fun things for me about participating in the Fifty-Two Frames project is that every week, there’s some new minute aspect of life I get to focus on. Like birds. For instance – I never realized how loud birds are in my neighborhood. Because there are TONS of them on top of…

Portal into a parallel universe.
Runners up for my Fifty-Two Frames submission this week. Don’t you ever want to drive straight through to the other side of whatever the hell it is?

Fifty-Two Frames: Vehicles
It hasn’t been my week regarding vehicles. Perhaps that’s precisely why this week’s Fifty-Two Frames theme is appropriate. Week 11: Vehicles A small boy’s paradise. Taken on Friday in Mitzpe Netufa, Northern Israel.

Fifty-Two Frames: Portrait of a Stranger.
My latest family-abroad visit is coming to an end. It gets harder to leave every time. For this week’s photo, I submitted a shot I took when visiting the 9/11 memorial on Ground Zero in New York City. Thousands of strangers. Thousands of names. No one to ask whether I could take their picture… Just…

Fifty-Two Frames: Dirty.
Visiting my hometown this week: Staten Island. Need I say more? So much opportunity: the landfill, the sanitation building, New Jersey, the beach, American cash, the natives, the tanning salons… But I ran out of time and good weather. Week 8: Dirty There was a Snooki the day before, but I messed up and forgot…

Fifty-Two Frames: Color.
Photography-wise, I decided to take the project seriously this week. So I dug out a lil something from a past life – make up – and braved the windy mirpeset to get some sunlight last Friday. P.S. How appropriate that I ended up having this conversation during Color week? Week 7: Color
