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: Silhouette.
This week’s photo is inspired by the work-from-home blues. It’s been over six months since I started as a WAHM, as they say. (Wham! You now work the double-shift at LIFE!) With the help of my biggest window’s soragim, and a bird as free as a Facebook account, my representation of this week’s photographic theme……

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: 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

Fifty-Two Frames: Line From A Song.
All week, it’s been the ‘I’ word. Which brings up the ‘w’ word, which brings up the ‘b’ word and so on and so on… When I did this photo shoot, I was nearly in tears the first take. My son was around, watching me take the boxes out of the closet and arranging them…

Fifty-Two Frames: Macro.
Confession: I always thought ‘micro’ means close up and ‘macro’ means far away. Whoops. There was a lot of examining life close up this week. I don’t have to go over it again, I’ve already done it twice. As far as the photo goes: I had a moving target this week, so getting the perfect…

Fifty-Two Frames: Eyes.
During this week’s Fifty-Two Frames theme, I happened to take Bebe to the eye doctor for her first check. What I would have loved to capture was the pediatric eye doctor, who, if you can suspend disbelief for a second, was a Moroccan Colonel Sanders. He even mumbled with a sort of Southern bravado. Week…

Fifty-Two Frames: Reflections.
This week’s photo inspired by our getaway last week. Which feels like a year ago, since I’m already sick, my kids aren’t sleeping through the night, I have a ton of work on my plate, and well, it’s raining a lot. Bla bla life is so hard when just last week we wined and dined…

Fifty-Two Frames: Black and White.
I struggled with this week’s B&W theme on Fifty Two Frames. To go interracial? To go Charedi? To go abstract? In the end I decided, who doesn’t want to start their week with emo DR. Seuss? Week 2: Black and White. Blasphemy: A darker Dr. Seuss

Fifty-Two Frames: Themeless.
Ten years ago, a dozen or so of my college friends banned together and got me a birthday gift in honor of my impending semester abroad: a Canon EOS Rebel, my first and only SLR. We had a ball together, but then came digital, and I’ve been mainly rocking out to little Elphs ever since.…

Ashkelon: city of love…
…or at least, 24 hours of comfortable R&R. Last week the huz and I snuck away for an overnight at a hotel on the beach in Ashkelon… since Bubbe is in town. Well, come on; it’s not all luna parks and kassams:

Chill out, sunset.
C’mon sky, stop showing off. Besides, I’m fairly sure it’s due to pollution. But, yes, you’re very very pretty.
