Mono-Monday: "(The Sands of...) Time"

Many thanks to GoranZebuhr for taking over the hosting of Mono-Monday this month.

For this blip, my Editor provided me with this rather interesting egg-timer, built into an original old spindle from the mills of northern England. I thought a sepia treatment would suit the age of the spindle.

(PS: For those who saw my blip yesterday, I've now added a flickr link to more photos of lovely Hardwick Hall.)
