Comments on: New London A season for art, a poetic venue, yet ambiguous http://www.peterjcrowley.com/2009/04/new-london-a-season-for-art-a-poetic-venue-yet-ambiguous/ Fine Art Photographer Sun, 05 Feb 2012 17:58:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jas http://www.peterjcrowley.com/2009/04/new-london-a-season-for-art-a-poetic-venue-yet-ambiguous/comment-page-1/#comment-427 Jas Sat, 18 Apr 2009 17:24:00 +0000 http://www.peterjcrowley.com/?p=251#comment-427 Ah, Spring, ambiguous I agree. Sometimes life looks better through the wrinkled glass, specially after surveying all the sweat & toil needed to clean up the winter debris in the yard. In my case, an antler or two along with wheelbarrows full of twigs and leaves. Those perky daffodils taunt us with their sunny dispositions. Yeah, they've been asleep for more than half a year. All and all the better temps are enough to put a smile on my face, but it's only April, the month of extremes as far as the weatherman sees it. However, seeing all the new green emerging from the dirt and rubble does rejuvenate a thought or two in this old and wrinkly brain. Something about the drone of lawnmowers and touring bikes makes me cringe as they punctuate the backyard solace. More than likely it's the doppler effect of deafening bass speakers working their way through the streets that has me winch just a bit. I swear you can hear them for a mile! Time for a trip to Baxter State Park... do you know how far you have to drive to not even hear the sound of the freeway? Ah, Spring! Ah, Spring, ambiguous I agree.

As one cursed with field dependence, your watermark appears to me to be going downhill. Like I said - not too relevant.<br/><br/>But on an artistic note - well done, as always!

But on an artistic note – well done, as always! I’ll need to visit this place one day soon.
