I considered making a few edits to this photo, but I decided to just leave it alone.

Medieval Marketplace
Welcome to the third project of my little medieval town - Medieval Marketplace!
In my marketplace you can see a tall tower with an astronomical clock on one side (a copy of the Old Town Hall Tower) and ordinary clocks on the other.
On the same square, life is in full swing! Here you will see a butcher chopping a piece of meat for the next customer - an old astronomer in a luxurious hat, and a fish merchant. A prosperous merchant with all kinds of trinkets, living in a house near the tower and unloading all sorts of supplies from the cart. A baker just baked another pretzel in his bakery. Well and of course the guards keeping order. :)
The project also includes 10 minifigures:
a jester fireman,
two guards,
a merchant of some supplies,
a fish merchant,
a baker,
a butcher,
two peasants,
a horse
The second floor of the houses and the roofs are easily removed. The whole model is fully playable. The tower is empty inside.
I was inspired to create this project by my trip to Prague last summer. Initially, I planned to create a project only for the Astronomical Clock (Old Town Hall Tower), but having built the tower, I decided to slightly change it and add a market square to it - in the end it’s a fantasy! :)
Also, when building this project, I was inspired by such clock towers as The Zytglogge and Ledbury Clock Tower, and a set of lego castle 10193 medieval marketplace.
I hope you enjoyed

Reloj gigante hecho con Arduino y Marmol.
Al principio pensaba utilizar unos 74HC595 para gestionar todas matrices de forma independiente pero lo he descartado al utilizar paneles LED de Sure.

In my opinion these are vastly superior to the good old dandelion clock, being much more like a many-faceted shape than a sphere.
Cottagey clock made from recyled packing foam and paper clay. This guy measures about 11 inches tall total. Time for fun!!!
This hour-striking clock with four dials was installed in 1904 in the New Market in Kirkgate Leeds by Wm Potts and Sons Leeds. The clock was designed by John and Joseph Leeming of London and cost £150. Gerald Balfour MP opened the market and the clock was set going by Alderman Knowles on 1 July 1904.
In Kirkgate Market it had an electric alarm which rang at 5.55, to warn the stall holders that closing time was imminent, and again at 6pm for close of business. The clock was serviced by an engineer who went up inside the tower, pushing up the trapdoor, which he then stood on to work on the clock. Sadly on one occasion, the engineer suffered a fatal electric shock and collapsed on the trap door which made recovery of his body very difficult.
In 1912 it was necessary to resite the market stalls to provide an entrance from Vicar Lane. The clock was removed and placed close to the entrance to Roundhay Park near the entry lodge. This building was demolished in 1937, leaving the clock alone.
In 1941 the movement was replaced by a synchronous drive and the original movement later installed in Leck Parish Church, near Kirkby Lonsdale in Lancashire. The Oakwood clock was restored in 1977.
The most impressive picture of the clock in its original site in Leeds Market is probably this engraving from "The Building News" in 1901:

Clocks by Coldplay. A Kaleidoscope of Neon.
I was asked by the President of Malta, George Abela to work on this project to raise money for the Malta Community Chest Fund. Musical Director, Sigmund Mifsud had already chosen and orchestrated a series of rock classics pieces to be played by the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra. The Rockestra show took place on the 12th September at the MFCC. Ticket sales were expected to be around 3,000 but I am very pleased to say that they sold out at 12,000. This is the largest indoor event ever held in Malta.
The evening included pieces by Coldplay, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, The Eagles and John Miles, so had a strong 70’s leaning and I wanted to reflect that in the imagery.
The local artists were The Riffs, Jotham Saliba, Claire Caruana, Alex Bezzina, Raquela, Neville Refalo, Daniel Cauchi, Ruben Zahra, Paul Borg Bonaci and DJ Owen.

I wish the light had been better for this pair of beautiful Victoriani. At the Triangle in New England, Peterborough. The fountain doesn't work and is in a poor state of repair, but it's a rather elegant little spire of sandstone and granite. I didn't notice a maker's mark but there's a plaque on it with a Latin inscription that I'm currently trying to decipher from another (offline) pic.
I think the latin inscription reads: In / priam memoriam / parentum / marime dilectorum / Josephi et Rebecca / Ball / ???? fontein / filius (?) / et quituor superates / filiaque / dedicant
Very roughly in loving memory of the parents of one Charles Ball, who was vicar of St Paul's church, in the district of New England, just behind me in this shot. The Triangle lies on the southern edge of the district but has become somewhat isolated and inaccessible due to the traffic.
The plaque is very pitted so really needs a brass rubbing to see the text clearly. Odd that no date has been included, but it was erected in 1884.
The clock was recently repaired, I think it's a unique mechanism, but the repairs included covering the faces with Perspex. This has not fared well under the twin onslaught of sun and rain and the faces have become hard to read.
Sorry the Hovis sign is only visible on 'Large', but I figured it was important enough to be recorded in the 'Old British Signs' pool.
The four-faced clock in the Main Concourse at the center of Grand Central sits atop the main information booth. This is a perennial meeting place, and this clock is perhaps the most recognizable icon of Grand Central. Each of the four clock faces is made from opal, and Sotheby's and Christie's have estimated the value to be between $10 million and $20 million.

The upper circular component (an astrolbe or simple planetarium) was installed in 1410 and has run more-or-less continuously since then. There are several moving parts, including the outer zodiacal ring and symbols representing the sun and moon whose positions vary with the celestial locations of these bodies. Rumor has it that the craftsman who made this mechanism was blinded so that he could not replicate this invention in any other city. At the top, under the arched portico, a golden rooster crows three times at the conclusion of each hourly episode. On the hour, the two blue doors open to reveal the passage of two sets of 6 carved apostles, added in the 17th century. Four animated statues flank the astronomical clock; the two on the left represent Vanity and Greed, while the two on the right embody Death and Lust. (Prague: Old Town Hall: 19-21 May, 2017)
