Ever decreasing circles of time by seanoneill

Ever decreasing circles of time

A shot of my watch with the droste effect applied for today's word, which is time.

Today I met with Hubregt Visser @hjv and a colleague, who were in Loughborough for a conference at the university. I was happy to show them both around the area, and enjoyed the comedy moment when I turned up wearing my Gangnam Style shoes so he would recognise me!

Though the weather rather conspired against us, it was very good to meet Hubregt.

There is an open invitation for anyone visiting the Loughborough area....

Your shoes are a very stylish alternative to the rose in the lapel!!!

That's so cool!
November 15th, 2012  
Haha! Thought of you today when my son decided to serenade his 3-year-old preschool class with "Gangnam Style." This shot is really cool...something on my bucket list. And not many days left to accomplish it!
November 15th, 2012

November 15th, 2012  
That's a beautiful shot.
I'll upload the picture of you in your Gangnam Style shoes in a moment. I still have to process the pictures but there will be good ones, especially those taken around the power plant. It was really great that you took the time and trouble to drive us all around and showed us all those nice spots.
November 15th, 2012  
@hjv thanks Hubregt. You are very welcome, it was a pleasure to host you both. Thanks for the cheeses, we all look forward to starting them at tbe weekend. I rather feared that me and my shoes may make your project, and I had done so well to last 11 months without a selfie!!
November 15th, 2012  
Interesting - good eye!
November 16th, 2012  
Wow, this is awesome Sean!
November 16th, 2012  
Congrats on well-deserved PP!
November 16th, 2012  
Very cool! I really want to try this.
November 16th, 2012  
@humphreyhippo Thanks, there is a link to a good and easy tutorial higher up these comments, and you will need to dowload pixelbender.
November 16th, 2012  
@seanoneill Thanks. I've watched Gavin Hoey's tutorial quite a few times, but I only have Elements so pixelbender sadly isn't an option. There is a plugin for Gimp I believe. It's on my bucket list. :)
November 16th, 2012  
very very well done, i'm impressed !
November 16th, 2012  
Very cool shot Sean, spotted this on the PP!
November 16th, 2012  
@bobfoto cheers Jason
November 16th, 2012  
very cool edit - been meaning to try one of these for a while
November 16th, 2012  
Just catching up Sean... this is a great shot and interpretation of 3pm... and that just happens to be a very nice Omega watch there too! From April onwards we will be back and forth to Loughborough when Adam starts playing cricket again, can I take you up on your offer to meet up, or you could come and watch some cricket at the Uni and we could have a beer (or wine!!)
November 17th, 2012  
@jackie8 that would be just delightful Jackie, I very much look forward to it:))
November 17th, 2012

November 17th, 2012
