Time Is Running Outby `Xerces

Photography / Conceptual

From my series of pictures named with a song title Time Is Running Out- Muse

My eggtimer and my hand, with fake blood. I've been wanting to get this done for ages now, and since I had my field trip, I wanted to get back into the swing of things.
With thanks to Geoff and ~Virik for all their help.
I must say, I love the song I based this on. Iwanted to emphasize 'you will be the death of me'..

I think I'm drowning
Asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
That you've created
You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction
You will be the death of me
You will be the death of me
Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

A little explanation for the concept-
Hour glasses are associated with the grim reaper. Everyone's life is like an hour glass. When the sand runs out, the reaper will come..

The picture itself is stunning, and you have the most graceful hands ever! It reminds me of a quote, which I can't place. "Death has the face of a skull, but it may as well have the face of a clock".

`Xerces Oct 23, 2006 Professional Artisan Crafter

cool quote. i'm glad you like my hands

thanks very much!

Just saw ~electron-nick comment and must say he is right. Don't know what it is or how you do it. But your pictures seems to have some kind of special touch that, even though most of them are quite harsh and macabre, makes them seem so very beautiful and peaceful. I really envy you for that.
