I thought about entering a truthfull self portrait, but decided against it. Didn't want to scare you off!
In stead, I entered someone else's portrait, not sure who he is. A saint probably, or a bisshop, as this head is found on the ruined Holy Rood Church in Southampton. The church dates from the mid fourteenth century, but I suspect this head must be younger, as the features are still remarkably in tact. But still, time has done its thing,

You shouldn't do things like this H. Being nosy, I'll be wondering all weekend and won't sleep a wink.

Ah well, it's not interesting to anyone else. I'll tell you what it represents if I win ;)

A bit of a busy weekend meeting new members of the family, but an early morning walk gave me a little space in time for Time In Space.  ;)

A birth date and time would be my guess  ;)

Andy, birth dates are usually of interest to family members, which made me think it must be something very obscure. But will we ever know, unless we all (or most of us anyway) vote for him?

Then perhaps it is a very clever entry, where the date and time correspond to the time of the picture being up loaded and entered in the thread?, but the date does not seem to correspond.  :2funny:

Too much thinking going on!

It's not big or clever (apart from the lighting - watches are a beggar to light with one shot which was what I had to do as it was hand held), it's just a personal time and date.

Don't know you well enough, to dare to have a guess at personal things! I'll have to concentrate on something else now, otherwise I'll get obsessed and won't sleep again tonight.
