Only Time... by marlboromaam

Only Time...

Enya - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wfYIMyS_dI

Composite rendered in Photoshop layers with a few select brushes, a phone shot of my dad's old 24-hour clock, and an old photo of me dressed for a ball. Probably NOT what they want for the song title or composite challenge, but what the hey! I love this song so I enjoyed creating this. BOB!

The backstory behind this is simply, it was the last New Year's Eve Ball at the Officers Club on base that we attended. My darling daddy took my mother and I to it... It was December 31, 1996. He passed away the following December in 1997. So... "Who can say why your heart sighs as your love flies? Only time..."
Nice creation. Haven't seen many 24 hour clocks/watches.
