Day 99 - Time

Today's assignment of the Daily shoot was to illustrate time in a photograph. I decided to capture the spinning pendulum of the clock Peg bought me for my birthday a few years ago. I've always loved this type of clock. My parents and aunt and uncle bought one for my grandparents' anniversary. I remember admiring it when I was young. I was mesmerized by the spinning pendulum and found watching it quite calming. This type of clock not only represents time for but family, memories and comfort.

Day 1 - Hands of Time

Had all the godkids and their parents over for New Year's supper this evening. We had a great time playing, chatting and of course eating. Since it's the first day of the year I came up with the idea of showing the passage of time through hands of different generations. The final product wasn't exactly what I had in mind but it follows the theme. The hands, from right to left, are 3 years old, 23 years old and 50 years old. Thanks to my helpful and patient models. This idea is still rolling around in my head so I may try it again. But for now this is it. Also, with a new year comes a new signature.

Day 159 - Cotton Candy Clouds

I've always liked looking at clouds. I remember as a child my friends and I would look up at the clouds and see how many things we could make with their shapes. We saw many fluffy bunnies, fish and other creatures. It's been awhile since I've played this game. Maybe it's time to find a spot on the grass, put down a blanket and 'play'. We often say, "Stop and smell the roses." Maybe we should also say, "Stop and look at the clouds."
