Today's daily Theme......"TIME"

[uberben]

Todays daily photo challenge theme was Time and I really didnt want to be cliche' with a clock. But after much thought, I had to go with my clock. I still had fun though.

settings?

settings?

well thats kinda hard since I took 4 photos and combined them in photoshop. To make the hands move at a reasonable speed, I tied a thin thread to the minute hand and moved it slowly so they would be picked up by the camera.

Here is the exif data for each of the photos before I photoshopped it.

Focal length: 38.0mm
Exposure time: 3.200 s
Aperture: f/9.0
ISO equiv.: 100
Metering Mode: center weight
Exposure: Manual

Excellent! My "clock" photo I was hoping for similar effect, but I didn't change the ISO from 800 to 100 (whoops) so even with a ND filter and polarizer (don't ask), the max time was 2.5 seconds. Very 'smart' image, and I wouldn't classify it as the cliche clock photo.

very inventive with the string, i was wondering how you captured that much "time" passing. :thumbup:

Very well done. It looks amazing.

very clever...and a cool shot too! i have always felt that time moved to fast most days...now you have proven it!!

 

[uberben]

Thanks everyone for the positive comments. I was actually surprised at how simple it was to make it work as well as it did.

Very cool idea...nice clock too...Is that actually an old clock, or a fake old clock?

Great shot. A good amount of clock in it too, I'm sure Hertz would love it!
