Larghetto

I found an antique metronome in my son's room, whilst cleaning for an upcoming guest. What else to do?

Onward to the holidays, which I approach with many mixed feelings. Life moves from "largo" to "presto" with ever-increasing speed and not enough time to savor events. I guess we are in second gear, accelerating upwards.

Thanks for taking time to stop by. Much appreciated.

Love the motion in this image and the shadows. Hope you are able to find some time to enjoy the festivities!

I am so in tune with you Rosie! And SO TRUE that it all moves so fast, there really isn't time to adequately savour it properly. In the end, perhaps it's "for the kids", as it once was for us...

I like the sense of movement in this which is perfect for the subject! I also like the square crop.

Nice edit and processing!

[Sarah Munnings]

This looks lovely in b&w with that sense of movement too.

Awesome subject and capture, with excellent hint of dynamic blur. I wish I just found this kind of thing in any of my sons' rooms ;) Hope you're able to enjoy the festivities when they come :)

I love the motion blur in this, and it perfectly matches your narrative too!

wonderful image, love the movement...

[Kim Harper]

Love how you've captured the movement. Time goes by with or without us, right? We might as well jump in with both feet and enjoy the ride!

A philosopher as well as a photographer, motivated whilst cleaning a room? Bravo!

Very philosophical Rosie. Love the shot, especially the blur in it. Interesting gizmo too.
