About Time does fly by doesn't it? :)

Speaking of time, I haven't had much of it lately, hence my not being able to view all my friend's photographs this past week. Only 30 minutes or so just isn't enough of it.

I have been on jury duty...LONG days, commute traffic coming home. What is one supposed to do during those 90 minute lunch breaks when you're stuck downlown? Go take pictures of course. Yesterday on the lunch break I walked about 3 blocks from the Hall of Justice to 'Horton Plaza' shopping mall. It's really a neat place, kind of 'visual candy'.

I think you'll enjoy seeing this most unusual area, really different. One of the most colorful shopping areas I've ever seen!

Anyway, yesterday after the lunch break we found out that this potentially long trial was resolved...AM SO GLAD!!

I know all of you have wonderful images to see, I look forward to viewing them all!!! :)

This is quite amazing. Not the photo. ;-) I was looking through the thumbnails and I saw that clock and thought "I know that clock." Strange, because I haven't lived in Oceanside for a couple years, now, and rarely went downtown to Horton Plaza except to go to dinner at that restaurant on the upper level that serves ostrich.

Anyway, It's amazing how certain things can trigger memories.

Now, about the photo: I like the colors and lines contrasting with the traditional-looking clock. I wish the "Wilsons" sign was cloned out. Also that stupid "Westfield" sign that's there, now that they bought out all the shopping malls in the area.

The man at the top adds some interest -- I almost missed him.

This photo brought back some good memories of San Diego, thanks. I don't have too many of them.

If my memory serves me Horton Plaza is in San Diego, near the water front I have been there and believe it or not, I recognized it without your comment because of all the pastel colors, and open air.
good shot for only having lunch hour !!!
hope its over soon so you can get back to normal.

I had to smile at this one, Lori, as Jessops is the name of my local camera shop where I bought my D70!!
I look forward to more from this series!

Lori Stitt   {K:74437} 9/30/2004
Hi Rob,

I think all the small clock faces show all the various time/zones from all over the world!

Have a GR8 day!
Lori :)


Jorg Reif   {K:16020} 9/30/2004
Hi Lori, nice bold lines and bold colors. Everything looks so concrete but it is an abstract nevertheless. Great composition! Regards Jorg, and thanks for visiting my pics and your friendly comments!


Mark Julian   {K:35253} 9/30/2004
No problem my dear Lori, Duty comes first! My favorite thing about Jury Duty is how much they pay you and the respect you recieve (for example, how much they respect your precious time)Anyway, on to the shot-Very interesting shot but also the title. Time DOES fly very fast when there's a, say, 90 min. Sudo - Debate on TV but it doesn't fly when your crouched in the corner shaking about the future. Very good composition and colors in this shot. 90 minutes ain't bad, not bad at all (but that's the system, ALWAYS putting the people FIRST!!!) Very nice Photo, All The best, Mark

well done lori :)


Hugo de Wolf   {K:184670} 9/30/2004
Hi Lori, I know you're short on time... Just take your time, it's always good to hear from you...:)

I love the surreal colours in this one. It experesses the way of being outdoors after long, tiresome days indoors.... I like the business in this composition too. Well captured, and post processed.

Good to hear that everything is over soon.... Good to have you back!

Cheers,

Hugo


Gustav Miller   {K:309} 9/30/2004
Hi Lori,
great colors and wonderful clock.Agree with the title, too... I just love this clock. Please see my version of it extracted from your wonderful shot.
Kind regards,
Gustav
PS. I am sure you will be looking at TV and so will I at about 3 o` clock in the morning over here.



Lori Stitt   {K:74437} 9/30/2004
WOW...YES Gustav, this one puts mine to shame!!
LOL....I'm amazed it still looks OK as far as pixels and noise as I have it cropped a lot in mine, this of course being even more so. Thought I'd for sure get the 'thumbs down' over being more vivid, but I do like what you've done.

Yes, 6:00pm here...however the 'rules' to this 'debate' leave much to be desired. (sadly)
I have a special photo to put on around October 30th or so! :)

Have a GR8 day Gustav!
Lori :)


Lori Stitt   {K:74437} 9/30/2004
YEs Jorg,
you are right; you've heard of the 'concrete jungle'?? LOL

This is why it's always so nice to drive where there are trees and hills and flowers!! (and animals)
I'm NOT a city person, I should be living in the country somewhere!!

Thanks for you nice comments!
Lori :)


Sam Andre   {K:12436} 9/30/2004

I appreciate your nice comment!
Have a GR8 day!
