Bad Timing by grammyn

Bad Timing

A bit of a double entendre. I forgot to take my camera with me this morning as I left the house. Once l came home I didn't want to leave again to find a picture and I can only take so many bug and flower pictures. aha! The weekly theme to the rescue for inspiration. Nope! Not this week. I thought " bad timing" and this shot came to mind. If you will note the clock says 1:27, and has said that same time for months, and the camera recorded the time as 3:47 (because I forgot to set it ahead for DST. It was really 4:47) so there is the second reference to time.

Love you dad♥
Very resourceful even if the timing was inconsistent with what one would consider good. Maybe you could consider the clock face as being messy and call it a messy portrait for the 52 week challenge. :-P

What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship that gorgeous clock is. I feel the same about bugs and flowers, but that is all I have available to me atm. Love all YOUR bugs 'n things though. Great photo, love it in B&W it has an old feel to it. Fav!

Talk about your timing being off- well, the clock and the camera's timing is off. You took time to take the shot- well, there now you've added a few more time related ideas to this shot! Good shot in a pinch!

Neat shot! Beautiful clock. I have one that says 11:30. It ran briefly after we moved, then stopped. My dad wouldn't understand--he made clocks and kept a couple of dozen of them running all the time.

Haha lovely shot of the stopped clock and great commentary to go with it! It made me smile.
