Early spring traveling on Rt. 87 Lebanon this day by car to the darkroom at Photosynthesis but my mind wanders to my youth as I would ride this road on my bike with friends from Coventry we would set out to explore sometimes riding 20 – 30 miles in a day. A new pond to skip rocks across, streams and big hills to race down fearless immortal kids. Fifty years later to the Lab, ten or so years ago to The Centennial Theater for summer theater dress rehearsal in Simsbury to photograph.
Yesterday hoping for an image or two between the rain drops or on the way back to chase the Golden Hour of late light. But there was no between the raindrops or Golden Hour. There was a visit with Carl and Maarit that made the sun shine within and the conversation with Tiana sharing her youth and dreams with us three sharing stories of youth and dreams. I told her I never thought I would be photographing barns but now as I think of being a kid in Coventry playing in haylofts the circle seems obvious. enjoy pjc
The Circle and Season
The Circle and the Season
I see the circle
Round and Round
Never sure where it is bound
Starting little
Outward Bound
I see the circle
Round and Round
Born the circle very small
Mom, Dad and relatives is all
In the blink of an eye
Crawling round
The circle widens
Exploration found
Walking Running
Day care, Pre school
The circle grows
Blink again
High School College
The circle large
Strong and sound
I see the circle
Round and round
Still growing larger
Outward bound
Careers distance sadness
The growing circle
Settles down
Families little circles
Start a new
I see the circle
Round and round
Early departures War and Peace
Fifty feeling thirty
Living hard running wild
I’ve seen that circle
Round and Round

Photographic Art
Back in Galilee RI April 2010
Another image from the fishing fleet in Galilee RI. Two years since I have been there perhaps another look later this year. Been a lot in the news regarding the “fishing industry” it looks like another blow against small independents. I admit I haven’t followed the story well. Here is an article from The Huffington Post regarding over fished areas and the system of controlled marketing of fish. “One fish two fish red fish blue fish.” Dr Suess. Or how the Marine Stewardship Council rates fisheries. There are links in article to Washington Post piece and other opinions on over fishing. I just like the small business and the boats. Independent like the family farm that is disappearing. enjoy pjc
