~ Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #266: Time ~


This week Donna of Wind Kisses, invites us to capture the essence of time through our photographs. In the Pacific Northwest, once again the season is changing.

Spring is now a sweet soft memory…

…vibrant summer is rapidly slipping out of her bright summer dresses…

…and into a warm golden-umber shawl.

“To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.” Pete Seeger

This pea warehouse was a quarter mile south of our farm on the Lewiston Highway, Pullman, WA. When I was in high school, I would walk there with my sketchbook and draw different aspects of it . One of my BAFA classes at WSU was photography. On a cold, grey winter day, I plodded through deep snow to take shots of “My Warehouse.” This past summer while I was in Pullman, I visited it once again.

“Time goes on, things change from moment to moment, and a photo is all that remains of the moment past.” E.L. Doctorow

A big thank you to Donna for providing a wide open challenge for us this week!

    Hi Lindy. Love that you took us into the seasons of the PNW. That part of the county steps up to the plate no matter the season. Love the warehouse comparison, but honestly now I am singing…”There is a season…turn, turn turn…. ” Thank you for this today, Lindy.

    Happy Anniversary Lindy! Loved your use of flowers and food to symbolize the passage of time and really especially loved the 2 images of the pea warehouse showing the sad passage of time. The quote is absolutely perfect for the week.
