Christmas and the New Normal Version 2, thoughts from 12/15/25

12.15.2021 by Peter J. Crowley // 2 Comments

Another wet gray day it is hard to see Christmas today or this week. More like March and with that
“when will the rain stop feeling.” No one says New Normal very much lately. A recent search for a 1998 transparency yielded these images. Smiles sent to you to see through the gray malaise this season. peace joy color love.

From my Norwich days a couple of a very red Amaryllis 

Perhaps not technically my best work but I love red and perhaps a bit of influence O’Keefe figures into my mind.

Old Orchard Beach Maine as a child summer meant a trip to Portland and the beach.

Summer 2000 or there about The Florence Griswold Museum great place to breath in creative air inside and on the grounds.

The International Fly In Moosehead Lake Maine mid eighties with Bob. 

Autumn in New England most likely Ct. Bright young Maples

Back to Old Orchard a nineties trip with my daughter. It was a fun vacation for us two.

Chris Torkelson who was a great advocate for train travel, his daughter looking out the window of the owners private sleeper car.  We were headed to Brattleboro Vt. and the excursion was sold out so we rode in style.

TEDs a staple of growing up UCONN or not growing up at all. I prefer option two. Today a visit from Nathen Hale Ale Brewery.  March 1989 the previous days snow continues to melt. If I remember correctly there was more snow to come.

Ice Cream by the Carousel Watch Hill R.I. 2001

 

May we all come together to share love, kindness and peace Always

Crossing the Street Capitol Way and Forth August 2015

The Heat, Light, Breeze. Inspired I did not cross. 

Moments of brightly colored folks going somewhere. I linger.

Which way to go shady side or sunny. I ponder in the shade.

Cold drinks and laughter choosing

the Sunnyside pleasing this lingering artist for the light was right.

Editing through the last two months there are a lot of unposted work that I like. 

Window light with a dirty window for texture November Eleventh.

 

Sun and ice cream in the late afternoon light.

The father ship glows while the astronaut gathers samples of  human sweets.

Halloween visitors.

The late sixties so many vans parked in my yard and on the road, to concerts, Vt. trips. Give me life on the road memories sparked by this old van. Dropping off forms at Homes First a portrait for November First. One of two images that day.

November 12th a one image day but I like the image. Rain continues to shorten my photo strolls.

November 10th dodging showers I had a good walk.

Angles of food, umbrella the geometric patterns caught my eye as this friendly shopper walked by me. May I take you photo? Yes she turned and I missed the angle I had seen as she approached. 

look around the site original fine art photographs make wonderful gifts. A search for Olympia 58 pages., https://www.peterjcrowley.com/category/olympia-wa/

 

peace
