Hello everybody.

Phew …Finally I finished it.

My participation in *UKTara contest "Time" .

You can't imagine how much time this took.

Ironic huh? ..

The subject is about time and I spent a lot of my time searching for stocks, cutting them from their background , and arranging them then merging them to look like that.

In the beginning I wanted to make it colored ..Then I thought that making it in black and white will add something to the general idea. What do you think?

I don't know why.. But I feel this place is like a place usually seen in nightmares .. doesn't it?

OK…Enough boring talk….Here's a puzzle for you (to wake you up a bit ):

-How many clocks/ watches appear in this picture??

Don't try to cheat by counting the stocks' links.. Cuz some of them are packages and I used two or three clocks from the same package. So use your fingers (and your toes if you need ) to count. Hehehehehe.

Hint: I'll put the solution in my profile page.. So if you wanted to see whether your guess is right or wrong , come and visit my profile to find the answer.

Stocks Used:

Desert

Starry sky

Moon

Sand clock

You'll find more clocks/ watches stocks in my faves/my fav stocks . I faved a lot of clocks but used only some of them.


Brushes used:

Glass fracture brush

Waterfall brush (Used in making the spilled sand)

Please.

P.S.: If you are a video game addict ..You'll know from where I get the title of my deviation.

It's cool how the sand pouring from the hourglass becomes the sand dunes that all the clocks are buried in. Beautifully done photo manipulation. Very seamless.
