April 2011
This piece seemed to make itself. I was working myself up to doing my taxes by sorting out the various paperwork items I'd received, when I happened to notice the different patterns on the inside of the window envelopes they came in. They gave me the perfect diversion from the main task and one thing led to another. Then, I impulsively tried one of the filters in Photoshop Elements and it changed the color scheme to one I much preferred. I don't understand how it changed the colors but they seemed to reflect early spring more than what I had before. I'll show the Time Travelers at the next meeting what I had before and also the envelopes. Kay Dolezal

Broadside - March 2011
This is the latest version of this broadside, although I'm not entirely satisfied. I have widened it, but that isn't so practical for anything but virtual posting at this point, since it would require a 13" x 19" paper and lots and lots of ink to run off many copies. Although I did test to see if the ink ran and it did not. At any rate I feel I'll let it sit awhile and move on to April.
After the intensity that preceded it the Time Project presentation at the Stonewall Institute was lovely evening. I was bowled over by the warmth and receptivity of the audience and as always by the work the group is doing. K. Dolezal

I hope next month's piece will not deal with snow. Kay Dolezal

Broadside for Time Project 2011- January
I decided to post this now because it fell into place this week and I thought people might enjoy seeing something to counterbalance the heaviness of the weather and the world news. I had stumbled on a book of Chinese poets from the early dynasties. The Lexington library had a display for the Chinese New Year. This poet is from the Tang dynasty. At any rate you can guess why a poem about snow caught my attention. I also love the tradition of writing a response to a poem. So that's what I did and then I took some photos of the snow.

Time Project Bonus of sorts
I guess it's hard to shake a year long habit. I took a walk this afternoon and this was the last shot I took and the one I liked best. I'd been thinking about what to put for the profile on my blog and then I saw my shadow. I took several shadow shots until as I was almost to my car and I saw this tree and the late afternoon light.
I couldn't resist sending it to the Time Project ladies with a haiku for old times sake. If you check the little picture by the profile section you'll see I used it there. Kay Dolezal

Week #52 - Time Project
On one of my walks I came across three hubcaps lined up against a fence neat as you please. This shot had the reflection, which amused me. So here it is to end our year which has sped by. The verse is a tanka, a relative of the haiku which has two additional seven syllable lines. I guess I felt I needed a little more space to express my thought.

Week #51 Time Project
I love Queen Anne's Lace and so took a number of photos of it, all of which I wanted to use. But I settled on this one and then I saw the bugs. First I saw the big fly, then the smaller one and then the smallest. So this is an instance where the image came before the writing.
I find it hard to believe that the Time Project year is just about up. Maybe I should say the first Time Project year. That's what I'd like to say. Kay Dolezal
