You could make the picture conditional, based on whether there was any value
in the field, like this:

IF TimeField                    !Is there any value in the field at all?
    ?TimeField{PROP:Text} = '@t1'    !If so, display it
ELSE
    ?TimeField{PROP:Text} = '@t1B'    !but blank an empty field
END

This way the field will display blank for no time and 0:00 for midnight.
