Tempus Fugit - a photo on Flickriver

Tempus Fugit

            Time escapes, slipping through the centuries-old stones and the cobblestones that have witnessed countless footsteps. Beneath the arch, a figure crosses the scene—blurred, ethereal—as if the moment itself could not contain them. Their silhouette is merely an echo, a trace of their passing before vanishing into time.

The lanterns hang still, unwavering witnesses to a world that never stops. The city endures, yet those who inhabit it are nothing more than fleeting glimmers in its history. In black and white, the photograph deepens the sense of a past merging with the present, of a moment dissolving before it can be grasped.

"Tempus Fugit" reminds us that everything we see is already slipping away, that permanence is an illusion, and that photography is the only way to hold onto the ungraspable.
