When I was a little girl I used to love 'telling the time' with Dandelion clocks ... ah- happy days!
233/365
The garden is now filled with dandelion clocks, though not the big, white, fluffy ones that we are used to. These are taller, with narrower stems and darker, courser seeds. I was struggling with the in-camera WB, and no matter what I did the seeds looked white like the normal dandelions, but they are closer to this warm, brown colour, much like they are after post processing.
Did you know that the word dandelion comes from the French 'dent de lion' meaning 'lion's tooth' in reference to the toothed leaves?
Suki watching and listening to our Grandfather Clock whirring and striking the hour.
My subjects these days are limited, just parts of the garden and my animals.
Anyway, Suki, my cat and my friend sticks with me wherever I am and this mono portrait is a fair reflection of her face and character
The clock tower is the official symbol of Izmir...it was built in 1901.
Thank you for your visit, kind comments and fave. Always greatly appreciated.*_^
he walks past. behind him, in the center of the clock, a child stands still. one of them is in a hurry. the other is not.
There is a broken clock on a tree in the woods near where we live. I've been photographing it every couple of years. It's a timeless beauty.
The most precious thing you can get from someone you love is their time.
It's not the words, it's not the flowers, it's not the gifts. It is the time.
Because that doesn't come back and what he gave to you is yours alone, no matter if it was an hour or a lifetime.

Taken for this week's Macro Mondays theme 'Timepieces'. The face of this small carriage clock is about 4 " in diameter. I liked the way that using a light source at the side threw the shadows of the hands across the face.
At this site in 1834, thousands marched to support the Tolpuddle Martyrs. The clock tower was built in 1855 by the Metropolitan Cattle Market as a centrepiece. The cattle market has since been replaced by Smithfield's Meat Market and is now a recreational park.
I didn't get a beautiful sunrise but what a great model. I didn't get her name but whoever you are, thanks.
Smile on Saturday! :-) Theme -Capture of Time .
Thank you in advance for views faves and comments all very much appreciated.
One of my favourite poems.
Time Is ... by Henry Van Dyke.
Time is
Too slow for those who wait,
Too swift for those who fear.
Too long for those who grieve,
Too Short for those who rejoice,
but for those who love,
Time is Eternity.
Back at Henry Tudor Lands. Couldn’t resist a picture of the clock. I used another great
texture by Gary.
