Let There Be Light!

CC Jean Stimmell: The Homestead May 20, 20120
My homestead version of Book of Genesis:

Darkness was upon the face of the Earth
and God said, Let there be light
and there was light
and it was so splendid
He called it Spring

Not mind or matter but something in between


Bluebird: 5/20/16

An imaginal image
is not mind or matter
but something between.
A merging in my psyche
of a hawk from Squam Lake
and stump from Boscawen.

A Provincetown time capsule, resurrected on my iPhone

CC Jean Stimmell

Resurrected on my iPhone:
A Provincetown time capsule
 from 8:39PM on 10/1/15

Walking down Commercial Streeon a cold and rainy night we happened upon a lone musician mournfully playing the blues.

Not having my pro camera because it was raining I was forced to take this shot with my iPhone. But not trusting that it would be any good, this image has gathered dust until I was forced to check it out for possible entry in an upcoming art show, limited to smart phone photographs only.

I was pleasantly surprised when I made a print of the iPhone image. What can I say, except that my natural mistrust of new mediums proves once again: It’s hard for old dogs to learn new tricks.
