Time – we are all moving in it – and through it. And looking back…through what we think is a clear window frame, we realize the blur and the shadows. Time changes everything, and we can never know or be certain about the way everything looked or worked…
Not in Ostia Antica, Rome, and not even yesterday, at home. In our minds we can imagine or remember – but the moment in time is gone.

Beautifully expressed .
Thank you very much!
Perfect, Ann-Christine. That site has many echoes of the past.
Walking in such places always stirs many feelings.
Beautiful, Ann-Christine.
Rome is eternal! Thank you!
Beautiful illustrations for your thoughts on time.
Thank you. I think time is very present – but yet not – when walking among ruins. They speak to you, don’t they? I am usually overcome by sadness and thoughts of those who once lived and worked here.
Yes, they do speak.
Yes, very true. Beautiful shots Ann-Christine.
Thank you, Mary! I must confess, there was a comment from you that just flew away when I tried to answer it. I must have pressed the wrong key or something…Sorry. Sometimes I’m just too fast I think.
Great choice for the challenge.
Thank you so much!
Well said and beautiful photo’s!
Thank you, Noortje!
