Covid-Time 1 : Time Stretched!
Covid-Time 2 : Time Shrunk!
One of the odd things about this Covid time is that for me, and for many people it seems, time itself appears to either speed up or to crawl! It’s hard to believe it will soon be Summer when I have hardly become used to the idea that it is Spring … and what happened to Winter? Some days I can’t believe it when I see that it is only 3:00 PM when I thought it must be at least 6:00 PM; other times, the days speed by faster than ever and there isn’t time to do all the things I meant to. And it always seems to be the weekend again every few days! Strange.
So I thought I’d have a bit of fun and try to depict that visually.
At the top, is a picture which might represent a chunk of normal Time, with all its ups and downs, ins and outs, lights and darks. (Dont take it too literally: perhaps this was a day I spent looking at flowers, waiting at traffic lights, or making a spinach and tomato soup, then trying not to snooze while watching TV) : )
Then to follow there are Time Stretched and Time Shrunk.
The last two are made by manipulating the same original picture, which is itself an edited photo, just as our brains seem to do with time!
