LIQUID TIMER

 
Elegant cylinder contains a reservoir at each end from which a coloured, viscous liquid drips when turned over each drip bringing us closer to 2014
365 days down the road I have come to the end of an exciting project uploading one image a day for each day of the year.
The experience has been very useful making me focus in more detail on what is around me.
I found myself using macro more than normal; I’ve always remembered David Hockney’s saying that we don’t always really look at what’s around us, so getting up close with macro certainly produces some exciting images.
I am planning to continue uploading some images at the end of each month because it seems a shame just to end this on the 31st December.
So I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thanks to you for your support and wish you a Happy New Year.
If you would like to email here is my address CJGMcool@aol.com
I am thinking of putting on an exhibition later in the year using a selection of images from the blog. It would be useful to hear from you if you had any particular favourites 
Many thanks,
Clive
