Overslept Alarm

Gatwick Hotel

For the " Running Late " Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge
more moving images can be seen in the forum ::here::

::Part of my Thursday Challenge Collection::



I printed off a picture of an traditional Alarm clock on to some A3 copy paper.
Then just took a photocraph of it using second second curtain flash whilst zooming in.

For processing I converted to B/W, did a levels adjustment, adjusted contrast,
cropped, and resized to 640px high.



My PaD image for today

1.3s@ f14, ISO 100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Love this shot, Ian - very creative and out of the box thought process. The geometry of circle within circle and square within square is really appealing.
