another entry for the artist challenge.
this is ivanova's original: https://500px.com/photo/6997439/the-essence-of-time-by-victoria-ivanova i couldn't take apart the movement/mechanism of that old watch in the reflection no matter what i did (i even almost cut myself) so i let it be -- just in case you're wondering what the heck that is reflected in the mirror. 🤣
this is a double whammy as i'm also tagging this for the composite challenge.
my lighting is very different from the original because i can't be bothered to adjust it even if i could. i am poofed from working seven hours at the office. one of the girls and i deduced that the masks wear us out. we are allowed to take them off if we are seated at our desks. if anyone is talking to us, it's our choice if we put it on. but to have it on and to go all the way around to get from point a to point b because we need to follow the direction of the arrows on the floor. late in the afternoon, i couldn't be bothered to take the long route to the washroom. couldn't care if i was caught on camera, it just didn't make sense, plus there's hardly anyone around anyway. one more day and i'm back working from home.
@maggiemae - 🤣 i forgot to add that i couldn't take that old watch apart so i just left it as it is. so it's suppose to show the inside of the watch. sorry for the confusion. and thank for pointing it out. ♥
Health studies are now showing that the mask wearing is causing more problems than it's solving. Of course you won't hear that on the major media because they're all tied in to China and China is making a killing off of all these ridiculous attempts to stop the virus. You can't stop a virus by making it go dormant. All you do is put it to sleep until there's a reason for it to wake up again- hence all the rise in cases when people are "allowed" to get back together. Being outdoors is not spreading the virus- with or without the mask. In fact it's the opposite. Sunny days help your body make use of vitamin C and D- both build the immune system which is your strongest defense against the virus. Not only is breathing your own exhaust bad for your health in general, it's also bad for your teeth and gums. There has been a drastic rise in peridontal (I don't know how to spell that!) disease since masks became mandatory not to mention the psychological struggles many have with them and so on. Well,enough on that! Nice reflection shot!
