When Time Was No More

I am thinking that this could be a plot to a Movie of the Week.
I was catching the last bus home and I still had not taken a shot that I was really happy with. So I quickly took a shot of this clock. It is at one of the Edmonton Transit Service Terminals. Earlier this year the clock stopped running. It remained unfixed for several week and then one day I noticed that they had removed the hands from its face. They still have not replaced those and so I really don't know what they will do with it.
I have to stop here on my way to work each day and since I have not worn a watch in years I never know what time it is when I get there. That is okay though. I have found that life is so much more relaxing when I am not concerned with the time

[Kerri]

Cool clock! :)

[Angie]

I used to wear a watch religiously. I've stopped, for no particular reason. Like you, I find it kind of nice. However I have learned how to check the time from other people's watches... sneaky. But I also carry my cell with me.

@sls I don't even have a cell phone so | really don't worry about the time anymore

[Ellen E]

what a find!

[LisaMarie582]

Fun clock! ..I'm not sure how I would manage without my cell phone...isn't that crazy?? What have we become.

[bkb in the city]

@lisamarie582 Yes this technological world has it's good and bad points

[bkb in the city]

@ellen I thought it would make a fun shot

[Rach_who]

Does this mean you have all the time in the world? Great find.

[Michael Elliott]

That's great - imagine no time ticking!

[Paula]

I don't know why, but that creeps me out that is has no hands! Great find!

[bkb in the city]

@pwallis Thanks. That is a response i would not have thought of

[Carolyn White]

Awesome find! Maybe they took the hands off, because people didn't realize it wasn't working and missed their buses?

[Laurie Higgins]

I love the idea that time simply does not matter. So often we are a slave to the clock. Cool capture.

[Anne ❀]

cool shot, i so agree about not wearing a watch!

[bkb in the city]

[bkb in the city]

@rach_who I wish that was the case

[Dora Prokosh]

I retired in June and have not had a watch on since

[Diane]

What a great find!

[Lauren]

so true about life being more relaxing without the time. it seems that sometimes every minute needs to be accounted for, and sometimes it's nice to just be blissfully unaware of the time.

[Shirley Chetwynd]

well we can't say the hands of time, because there isn't any lol, wonderful shot tho.

[Jennifer C]

spooky! well spotted candid image!

[Isabella Thunder]

well, it looks cool without it's hands

[Alistair]

No excuses if it's late? ;)

[Janet Morris]

Great shot of the poor handless clock. I don't wear a watch either but always have my mobile for the time!

[Shirley Banford]

Nice composition.

[Howard Steele]

Cool pov great capture

[karenann]

[Flipside]

Most Interesting! Love your title!

[stephanie dp]

what a funny and somewhat spooky capture!

[Shanne]

fun capture, how odd that is

[Juliette Packham]

what a great shot! I stopped wearing a watch about three months ago when the strap broke - I like the freedom it gives though I have almost missed a couple of flights!!

[Rebecca M]

Fun shot! Very cool!

[Susan Noiles]

Good shot! I love that the clock has no hands! Very unique.

[Mary Lou]

funny so many people stopped wearing watches. I haven't worn a watch in over a year and I rarely need to ask for the time

[bkb in the city]

[bkb in the city]

@lauriehiggins Thank you Laurie

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great shot- I used to wear a watch all the time, but since I haven't been working, there seems to be no need for it. I kind of like not being so attached to it!

[bkb in the city]

@olivetreeann It is a great feeling for sure

[summerfield]

strange, brian. but this is the third time today in my travels from san francisco to chicago to buffalo that i have seen clocks like this without hands. i'm beginning to think i am in twilight zone. eerie! nice shot though.

[Maaikel]

Great find!

[bkb in the city]

@maaikel Thanks

[John]

Great find, what happened to the hands?

[bkb in the city]

@summerfield That would make me wonder too

[bkb in the city]

@johnnyfrs I am not sure. One day they were gone and they have not replaced them

[Dave Schofield]

ha ha, the amount of people this must have annoyed.

[bkb in the city]

@chewyteeth I am sure it did bother more than a few of them

[bruni]

Well I'll be....never thought I see a clock that stands still but some do but without the hands never..so I think this is a neat picture and deserves to be on 365 for all to see.

[bkb in the city]

@bruni I am glad to have shared it

[Sandie Reardon]

Neat! I wish my watch didn't have any hands, too!

[bkb in the city]

@sandier That is why I don't wear a watch anymore
