An old time clock complete with time cards in an old abandoned manufacturing plant. How many of you can remember punching a card before and after shift? I can, back in the '70s. There were no computers or smartphones back then.
The McKee Clock in Bangor, County Down. It was built in 1915 and is named for the local person who donated a large sum towards its construction.
The Clock Tower of Sighișoara was a town hall and a prison. The following engraving was found near the Torture Chamber's window: "Morgen werde ich..." ("Tomorrow I will..."), which might be a prisoner's last message, on his last day alive.
Christian Ackermann
Last quarter of the seventeenth century.
Church of the Holy Spirit
Tallinn, Estonia
Christian Ackermann was born in Königsberg. He worked in Riga, Stockholm, and Gdańsk, before becoming active in Tallinn from about 1672 until his death in 1710. In 1675, Ackermann moved to Tallinn and acquired his own workshop. He probably died either in 1710 or a short time later from plague.
Christian Ackermann was one of the greatest masters of the Baroque style in Estonia. He brought strong Central European influences to Northeast Europe, in particular the motifs of the Baroque and masterful Acanthus ornaments.
Paris. The Sacré-Coeur church is in the background. In the foreground is the clock face of the Musée d’Orsay, which looks northwards across the city. The church was completed in 1914 and is on the summit of Montmartre, the highest point in Paris.
Wikipedia: This is an upmarket department store in London, England. The main store is located at 181 Piccadilly in the St James's area of London
In April 1951, the Canadian businessman W. Garfield Weston acquired the store and became its chairman following a boardroom coup. In 1964, he commissioned a four-ton clock to be installed above the main entrance of the store as a tribute to its founders. Every hour, 4-foot-high (1.2 m) models of William Fortnum and Hugh Mason emerge and bow to each other, with chimes and 18th-century style music playing in the background
The clock, which projects over the High Street from the Guildhall, and which has regularly appeared on television, proudly displays its original date of 1683.
The case is made of English oak, has a cast iron internal frame and copper dials. Conservation work included stripping off all the accumulated layers ofpaint, re-finishing and re-gilding with 231⁄2 carat Englishgold leaf. Additional repairs were made to parts of the mechanical clock movement which is a traditional two train type with recoil anchor escapement and had been cared for by Smith of Derby for many years.
Daedalus Conservation also worked on this project and their woodworking craftsmen cut out and replaced parts of the timber casing which were causing concern. Smith of Derby clockmakers removed rust from all theironwork, applied anti-corrosion primer and re-finishedthe whole case in high quality exterior gloss paint. All this work was completed on-site.
Prague's astronomical clock is the third oldest astronomical clock in the world and the only one still working. Decorating the facade of the Old Town Hall in Prague's Old Town Square, the clock dates back to 1410. The top portion of the clock tells time as well as the position of the sun and moon. The bottom portion was added 80 years after the original clock and serves as a calendar. There are also several figures decorating the clock; a skeleton representing Death strikes the time each hour - eerily my favorite part of the clock~!

SPRING O'CLOCK...
#AbFav_SPRING_EASTER_🐥
Dandelions are once again sprouting up all over, prompting the city, lawn-care specialists and amateur gardeners alike to again declare war on the broad leaf weed.
A dandelion is really many tiny flowers bunched together.
Each little flower becomes a seed...
We don't like them in our gardens.
AND YET: The dandelion plant is a beneficial weed, with a wide range of uses, and is even a good companion plant for gardening.
Its taproot will bring up nutrients for shallower-rooting plants, and add minerals and nitrogen to soil.
It is also known to attract pollinating insects and release ethylene gas which helps fruit to ripen.
Taraxacum seeds are an important food source for certain birds.
Great in a salad etc...
Enjoy and make the BEST of every day! Thank you, M, (*_*)
