Description The clock talked loud. I threw it away, it scared me what it talked. ~Tillie Olsen, Tell Me a Riddle

Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them. ~Dion Boucicault

As if you could kill time without injuring eternity. ~Henry David Thoreau

Clocks slay time... time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life. ~William Faulkner

Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new... but who can understand and measure its sharp breath, its mystery and its design? ~Paracelsus

Time is the most undefinable yet paradoxical of things; the past is gone, the future is not come, and the present becomes the past even while we attempt to define it, and, like the flash of lightning, at once exists and expires. ~Charles Caleb Colton


*****

I've always been kinda obsessed, intrigued and terrified by the concept of time. This was a very quickie manip I made during one of those obsessing moments. Nothing special but I like the theme behind it.

I tried to manip it so that her hair is one of the clock hands.

Girl and clock - my stock.

Full view reommended, thanks.

Another deep thinker. I am obsessed with the making of the universe and the idea of a god. Those sayings are interesting as is your work.

I love the shadow of time stretching across the floor. And I love your idea for her hair. Just a great photomanip. You've carried your sentiments about time well into the piece - intriguing and terrifying and a slight feeling of something obsessed. Beautiful work.
