We asked our readers to send in their best pictures on the theme of “time”. Here is a selection of the photographs we received from around the world.
Jane Luetkens
Jane Luetkens: “The dandelion clock is ticking.”
John Hughes
John Hughes: “A street photo taken in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.”
Harald Loeffler
Harald Loeffler: “It can take decades for a rock to slide across the Racetrack playa in California’s Death Valley, moved by the wind on rain-slicked mud and gouging out its trail.”
Larry Hurst
Larry Hurst: “Stop the clocks, a moment in time in Canada Square, London.”
Carsten Schnoor
Carsten Schnoor: “Old alarm clock with spiderweb on it. Reminds me of the song by Freddy Mercury : Time waits for no-one.”
Jakub Maly
Jakub Maly: “A watch which has been passed down through four generations the origins of which has been lost to time. How the pocket watch came to be is unknown. Inscribed on the back are the following: ‘Angre, Double Plateau, Balancier Compensé, Spiral Breguet, 17 Rubis’.”
Emma Warren
Emma Warren: “Enjoying our time at the Palace of Stardust lights, at Hampton Court Palace.”

David Pechey

Doris Enders
Doris Enders: “Time measured the old fashioned way.”
Roland Trope
Roland Trope: “Time’s Lengthening Shadow. All birthdays mark the end of one, the start of another, age. Some birthdays cast a lengthening shadow as the single candle does in this image of a 70th birthday pumpkin pie.”

Catherine Sherwood
And finally… Catherine Sherwood: “Have ewe got time for a selfie?”
