Ode to Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Narrative and interpretive digital composite by
KURT LIGHTFOOT

Ode to Jonathan Livingston Seagull is part of a body-of-work consisting of ten composited images and titled Whole and Some of Its Parts. The images bring together terrestrial and celestial Parts to encourage, or maybe inspire, a personal experience of The Whole. Your experience as the viewer is the final creative step.

The terrestrial part of each composite image is from my camera or drone, and the celestial part is from NASA’s Hubble telescope, Webb telescope, satellites, etc.
