Iceland spar calcite
Brazen rays of light
Hinted hues hand news
Penetrating strike through
Colour streaked window
Blast upon the shadow
Growing twists and turns
Ongoing attempted burn
No time to cower
Into eleventh hour.

Inspiration for Spectrum in Hand was derived from playing around with a large clear calcite crystal, also known as optical calcite and Iceland Spar in late afternoon sunshine. The large chunk I own is the shape of a parallelogram and clear, with some minor internal fractures. It is these fractures that impact the colour display as the calcite is rotated in position, or turned over on different sides.

During two shoots and experimentation with all those rainbow colours projected through the crystal I discovered something unexpected, the suggestion of a hand in the light spectrum display. Both my hands were on the camera during all shots. I didn’t see the hand present until I went through the photos and saw a progression sequence with the hand emerging in brilliant colour display.

The final image, a hand of rainbow hued light colours was selected to mint into an NFT. I used Photoshop for minimal editing. From the series, I created a video clip showing the transition emergence of Spectrum in Hand.

Minted into a single edition NFT, Spectrum in Hand is available on NFT Showroom. A video downloadable capturing the emergence of the hand colour play in MP4 format is included with the purchase of the NFT, Spectrum in Hand.

Available for purchase on NFT Showroom:

Iceland, from what I've seen (not in person) looks really stunning. Would have been an interesting trip with good times I'm sure, until life for everyone got cancelled and routed down a tunnel.

Thanks @trippymane! One NFT only, video goes with that, so viewable only to the buyer.

LOL, I tend to think of it as green more than snow, but that's due to images of green stuck in my brain.

Some changes in direction for me, that's why single NFT's now. Thank you @trippymane!

LOL! It's more a case of my wanting winter over so much that all I can think about is Spring coming and green leafy things of all varieties.

Spring coming and green leafy things of all varieties.

The way I read that, lol, I pictured Canada buried in snow and ice. It depends on where in Canada you are, as to how cold. Northern parts, very cold, yes. Most people live in southern Canada. Vancouver is very moderate in winter, green all year, rains in winter, not cold (one example). Where I live is not that cold, but the way people complain (sometimes myself), you'd think it's life in an iceberg.

The light has changed quite a bit, days getting longer, and March to me, means the worst of winter is over.
