this is an alarm clock that was in the room we (my sisters and i) were sleeping in. i added the black and white and made it dark. :D enjoy.

Mantel clock, triple chiming (Westminster, St.Michael, Whittington), in oak veneer with lighter oak inlay.

I think it dates from the 1920's. Or maybe it is even older.

Despertador antic. Crec que data del 1920. O potser encara és més vell.

Clocks I made for my Architecture of Objects Course. Inspired by Art Deco style desk clocks from the 1920's - 30's

Graham's 52 Challenge, Week 3 "Black and White"

As you can see, I've not desaturated!

Taken with my newly bought Lensbaby fisheye on the Olympus EM10.

Stupidly I bought a 4/3rds Olympus lens on eBay, but the EM10 is a micro 4/3rds, so had to buy a adaptor. Anyways, still cheaper than buying a new Lensbaby, not that they seem to make a micro 4/3rds one, yet! Thanks Darren for telling me which adaptor I needed, coz I would have got that wrong as well......I'm not safe on eBay :))

This German clock had the bell uncovered and outside.

Detail of the longcase clock at my grandparents' house.

It always looked funny to me the roman number 4 as IIII (instead of IV), but seems common in clock dials.

Vion A80 Marine Clock with four Silence Zones. The silence zones indicate that for 3 minutes after the hour, the half hour and each quarter, radio silence should be maintained in order that any distress calls can clearly be heard by the emergency services.

That clock seems so expensive, may be it is quoted with diamond / gold

In the Council Study.

Adjacent to the King’s Chamber and opening onto the Hall of Mirrors is the Council Study. This did not take on its present form until 1755, under Louis XV, when it was created by combining two rooms, the King’s Study where Louis XIV held his ministerial councils for financial and state matters and the Terms Study, a more intimate room to which Louis XIV retired with his family or inner circle in the evenings after supper. The study was decorated in sumptuous wood panelling featuring new decorative motifs (trophies, attributes of the army, navy and justice etc) carved by Antoine Rousseau from drawings by Ange-Jacques Gabriel; magnificent works of art commissioned by Louis XV and Louis XVI now adorn it: a rococo clock (1754), a porphyry bust of Alexander the Great and two vases depicting Mars and Minerva in Sèvres porcelain and chased bronze by Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1787).

[Versailles website]

The Palace of Versailles was created at the instruction of Louis XIV, and was the centre of French government and power from 1682, when Louis XIV moved from Paris, until Louis XVI and the royal family was forced to return to the capital in 1789.

The chateau is built around a hunting lodge established by by Louis XIII, and was created in four phases: 1664–68, 1669–72, 1678–84 and 1699–1710, by the architects Le Vau, Le Nôtre, and Le Brun.

The Great Clock was installed on Marshall Field’s State Street Store on November 26, 1897. Marshall Field envisioned his great clock as a beacon that could be seen for miles and attract crowds to his store which he saw as a meeting place.
