Response to Yoel Leib
Hi Yoel,
Thank you for kind words.
In answer to your question: The photograph is always taken first. Thereafter I spend hours studying the photo and writing the caption.

I'm really enjoying these photographs. You have a good eye, and really like to use the bright and contrasting colors to express yourself.
Just curious, which comes first for you: do you see the sight and think of the caption and then take the photo, or do you take the photo and then come back to it later and think of the caption?

Be prepared Yes, we have to sail on when the inspiration comes to us. G-d gives it to us to share with others.
The Baal Shem Tov taught that "everything a person sees is a lesson in the service of G-d." Join Michoel on a weekly photo shoot to explore the wisdom of Torah and Chassidic thought through the camera's lens.
