Two photographs of hourglasses have been downloaded from stock.xchng, a free stock photo site. One is titled Like Sands Through the Hourglass… and was taken by P. McKenna (”moonfire8″) at PhoenixTears.com. A thumbnail of the original is below, but click here to go to the photo’s stock.xchng page.

Like Sands Through the Hourglass

The other photo from stock.xchng is titled simply Hourglass and was taken by Paavo Leinonen (”paav-o”) at leinonen.net (in Finnish). It is being used as the logo image on the masthead of the web site as well as a spacer between articles on multi-post pages. Here’s a thumbnail of this photo, but once again, the photo’s stock.xchng page is here.
