Which is to say, I finally remembered to take the camera with me on my walk.  I seem to have gone in the wrong direction for purple.

Way back when the earth was just cooling and I was in high school, there were a lot of clocks out in public:  Freestanding clocks on sidewalks, clocks as part of building façades, digital display clocks at banks.  Timepieces all over the place.  Not so many now, which is unfortunate when one has forgotten one's phone.

Anyway, they don't make them like this anymore.



There's probably a story somewhere.

First I have a picture of "Time".  I put out a home-made snow gauge during the blizzard earlier this month and ran out hourly to get a picture as the snow accumulated and blogged the storm.  At one point I went out, got my 9:00 shot, walked around the block for a bit getting pictures of the buried cars and unplowed streets and dogs in the snow.  When I got home, 12 minutes later, we'd accumulated another inch of snow.  AN INCH in 12 MINUTES!

After much searching I finally found something purple in my home. Happily enough it also matches the abstract prompt.

Vintage Research poster

A poster displayed at the Pharmacy School building on my campus. It is advertising medical research into cancer drugs, a measles vaccine ("98% of our population contracts measles during childhood"), and a live polio vaccine.

my bedside table is a second hand find from the 1960s made in teak, but the clock just pretends to be vintage

The new concrete aperture is "Wood," and the new abstract aperture is "Time." Happy photographing!
