Project 365, Day 65. It's About Time.



The post tonight, it's about time.

Or a clock, rather.

I got cockblocked by a bunch of dirty hippies from where I wanted to shoot this weekend. I packed a camera bag specific to the one place I wanted to shoot and the unwashed masses had it blocked off for a street party. The weather shitcanned my back-up plan too.

Damn hippies.

So, instead, I took a picture of the clock that my mum received as a retirement gift. It's quite a very nice clock, so clearly it wasn't given to her by her former employer. I think they gave her a shove to the parking lot. No, the clock was given to her by my Auntie Nanc and Uncle Glen.

It has some nice crystals that spin in the base that I tried to blur the motion on while at the same time freezing the second hand. Nothing too fancy.




What did I get my mum for retirement? A gift certificate to the local nursing home. Shhh, don't tell her, I want it to be a surprise! My father-in-law's retirement may be coming up here pretty soon too. I'm trying to talk him into buying a build it yourself helicopter. No, really.

What?




Music tonight:
When It's Love by Van Halen
Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas
