The object of this photo challenge is to give your images a sense of “Time”. This can be done in multiple ways. One way could be to “Freeze” time as in sports photography or images that freeze rebounding water drops. Another way is to use long time exposures to show blurry motion. Recently I learned about multiple image stacking in one of Alex Kilbee’s presentations: My Street Photography Was Aimless. How I fixed It about 2 to 3 minutes in.

    Here is an attempt to show the passage of “Time” by stacking multipe images of steel balls rolling around in a roller coaster I constructed over Christmas. The images were taken at 15 frames per second and then loaded into individual layers in Photoshop then stacked together to get this continuous “strobe” effect.

    Different concept of time..
    Only works when it is very cold outdoors.
    Over several days the new high efficiency furnaces have an exhaust pipe that allows gases to flow up and away but the vapours condense rapidly and like drips in caves compile in a stalagmite formation. This one is 50 cm high. Shovel for scale purposes only.

    Recently, I was part of a card playing evening where we brought food for snacking during the game. This dish started out perfectly full but over the course of the evening, the bread and salsa was eaten illustrating time. The picture was taken with my phone since I didn’t have my camera with me. The picture is cropped. The settings on my Apple iphone 16 Pro show F1.78, 12 MP, S1/40, ISO 200

    Took this photo when it was still possible to hike up mount Burgess in Yoho park.
    Trilobites existed from early Cambrian(~520 Ma) to late Permian(~250 Ma)

    Fragments of Amonites and Belemnites from my collection.
    Amonites existed from early Devonian (~410 Ma) to Cretaceous-Paleogene event (~66 Ma).
    Belemnites lived from late Triassic (~237 Ma) to late Cretaceous (~66 Ma).

    My parents’ old Viking tube radio, circa 1950. It still works fine (AM only), but does take TIME (a minute or so) for the tubes to warm up after it is turned on.

  9. Ron says:

    I also have a 45 rpm record player that sat on top and plugged to the back of the radio, but it no longer works. Apparently in 1952 you needed to have a license to operate a radio in your home.

    I call this picture, “just a matter of time” before the wood pile falls over. This is taken with my cell phone. I cropped it, turned it to black and white and “tried” to do some masking in Lightroom Classic.
