Horology  by walksnaplove

Horology

This week’s Get-Pushed-Challenge came from Kali who wanted me to interpret Horology: the study of time and the art of measuring it in a photograph. Handily, whilst visiting a friend, I came across the clock pictured, with a piece of time taken out of it and used as the pendulum. I then thought of another way of tracking time through tidal movements and added the rock pools taken earlier this week as the background, in the photo editing app, BeFunky.
@kali66 Hi Kali, Here is my interpretation of Horology - I loved the piece of time taken out and used as the pendulum; I wish time stood still momentarily so I could capture it with less movement - also, don’t looks too close, as you can see my iPhone in the reflection 😂

Interesting challenge and interpretation of it.

That was quite a challenge, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who had to look up the meaning! I thought Einstein spoke of time as being a river (and he did) but when I looked THAT up, I thought this was interesting: Heraclitus thought that time was like a river: 'Everything flows and nothing abides; everything gives way and nothing stays fixed. ' Our experience of the world seems to back this up. It certainly feels as if time is sweeping us along.

Wonderful response to the challenge. I like the motion of the pendulum. I think it adds to the interpretation.
