Seasons are changing and clocks are springing forward and falling back in the places around the globe that observe daylight savings time. With all this change afoot, I can’t help but think about the passing of time. Looking at past photographs from my travels I found quite a few clocks, from the iconic clock in the Main Concourse of Grand Central Terminal, New York …
and the trusted meeting spot under the Eason’s clock in Dublin …
to the bright, modern clocks of downtown Seattle.
But there are plenty of other things that remind me of the passing of time, like lengthening shadows on brightly painted houses in Antigua, Guatemala …
or an abandoned record store in Asbury Park along the Jersey Shore …
and the faded glory of another time along the Coney Island boardwalk.
How do you visualize time? If you would like to join in this week’s timely travel theme (everyone’s welcome!) here’s what to do:
- Create your own post and title it Travel theme: Time
- Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
- Get your post in by next Thursday, as the new travel theme comes out on Friday
- Don’t forget to subscribe to keep up to date on the latest weekly travel themes. Sign up via the email subscription link in the sidebar or RSS.
I’m still getting caught up on last week’s green posts, but if you’re ready for this week’s theme, the clock starts now!

Hi Ailsa and everybody !
Here my interpretation of Time…
I love that first picture. I took my liberty with this one. Some of the picture might not fit in your browser without scrolling but I wanted to show the detail in these great old buildings.

Hi Ailsa,

I thought I’d do clocks too, but it turned out I didn’t have as many in my photos as I thought! Anyway, here they are… http://wp.me/pRM20-1uN
Hi Ailsa and backpackfriends,
Great to see the ‘warmest’ clock became a header.
It’s the picture I also prefered the most. Because that clock reminds me of the sun I’m missing so much these days.
Not only clocks fall back in time here in Flanders, also the seasons do. Spring turned again into winter for a change. So this is what became of my contribution :
