My Garden Grows…

Leave a reply
My Garden grows with the help of the Honey Bee. One of a series of photographs, a reflection of a collage made with my various images, created to draw awareness to the decline of the Honey Bee world wide. It was important for me to capture the globe shape as it represents the global impact of dwindling honey bee population.The petals above shoot out like the sun and the light coming forth from the east represent a new day,,,perhaps one where we can change the future of this valuable insect.

Two Suns- A Diptych of Days End by Chery Elich-Krumpelt

Leave a reply

A photographic diptych….a photograph that uses two different or identical images side by side to form one single artistic statement..A diptych is accepted as one photograph in many competitions but a description is almost always asked for when entering. The following is my description, in 400 characters or less, of this diptych titled Two Suns- A Diptych of Days End: 
Peering out of the window of a 747, I watched as the sun was setting, taking for granted the day behind me and the beauty of the scene. It was just another sunset, everyone photographs sunsets-it isn’t original. Then I realized that every sunset, like everyday, is unique and deserves to be preserved in ones memory.

Honored by both IPA and MIFA! Thank You!

Poem and Photography by Cheryl Elich-Krumpelt

Leave a reply

A poem that speaks of the disillusionment of time and age and how there is a disconnect between generations….

The Coat of Time

Lost

in a space

where time has no value

as it has dissolved

into a pocket sized rectangle

of desirous users

consuming Time’s hands

to the finger tips

with a touch

on screen

that projects gratification

in Its’ immediate.

No cloak,

no matter how ferocious

can shield

the lack of discretion that

no time gives. For it does not

stand still,

nor does it

fly

by

a generation

who knows it not

but of a minute by minute progression

to an absolute end

of an age

less

time.

by Cheryl Elich-Krumpel
