One of the first images taken with the new camera, after the old one drowned. Not sure what to think of it yet. It works so far, but I haven't yet figured out its "performance envelope".

This snowflake had 2 folding styles (look inside the circle in the middle). I cut the numbers after I opened it and added the hands before I laminated it. This was the time of day when I finished the design.
The clock inside Wells Cathedral
The Wells Cathedral clock is an astronomical clock in the north transept of Wells Cathedral, England. The clock is one of the group of famous 14th to 16th century astronomical clocks to be found in the West of England. The surviving mechanism, dated to between 1386 and 1392, was replaced in the 19th century, and was eventually moved to the Science Museum in London, where it continues to operate.

"Gastown's most famous (though nowhere near oldest) landmark is its steam-powered clock, located on the corner of Cambie and Water Street. Built to cover a steam grate, part of Vancouver's distributed steam-heating system, the clock was built as a way to harness the steam and to prevent street people from sleeping on the spot in cold weather. Its original design was faulty and it had to be powered by electricity after a breakdown. The steam mechanism was completely restored with the financial support of local businesses as it had become a major tourist attraction, and is promoted as a heritage feature although it is of modern invention." --wikipedia
This clock was sent to me by David, the owner of churchofcriticalthinking.com. Go! Visit that site! It owns! The clock, meanwhile, chimes and dings and says prayers in English and Spanish. Wooo! The English is actually a really tacky American which, rather than making me feel pious and reverential just makes me start laughing every time I set it off. Things like this are the best advertisment for atheism in the world today.
