Today Jackie and I walked Ruby in the two nearest woods so on this lovely day I took a number of images of flowers leaves a butterfly a clock two ladybirds and then a Jay which has been rather played with lots.

Clock on the corner of a building in downtown Anniston, Alabama.

Taken outside the Shiroi Koibito Park chocolate factory.

A self-playing clock tower at the conference center on Port Island, Kobe.

 

This dates back to 1410. It has Months, Seasons, Zodiac, Course of the Sun and Holidays...and it tells time!

 

On the stroke of the hour, the skeleton ( death) on the right tolls a bell and the 12 apostles follow... with several other figures in tow

 

Not really in the mood today. To be honest, if it hadn't been for the 365 I would probably have gone to bed at eight o'clock! As it is, I was staring into space and my old Hippocampus dandelion clock paperweight caught my eye. I love this paperweight - I bought it when I was a teenager, probably in about 1988, and I always wanted the matching thistle. But you know, life got in the way ;)

 

Wasn't quite sure how to capture it, so in the truly professional way that photographers do, I grabbed the nearest black thing (which happened to be a stack of tissue paper), cut a hole in the centre and laid this on top of my ikea fluorecent lamp (which was by now on it's back across the top of the waste paper bin in the living room!)

 

This shot was taken from the top, the alternate one used for my 365 is from the side.

Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England, UK

A bit too literal, but trying to be transparent.

 

and,.....

 

I don't know exactly what this means... wait, that is being too literal. I mean I understand the subject ... no wait no I don't. I mean the tags say a 747. Out the window maybe? No... Rob wouldn't imply someting only in his eye... wait he might. I want to go the easy route and say this is about time on a clock.

Yes... that is what I will do. Oh wait... no I mean I could but maybe I shouldn't. Wait ... ummm. Damn! No I mean everything's cool. Well I mean I' m cool with this... the broader picture I mean. Well... ummm yeah .-)

 

Montreal Clock Tower

Montreal, Qc, Ca

Clock oil in the clock tower, a great little touch. Took a few attempts to light this one!

Nope.. not mine :-( It's made from an old EF lens.

 

I like how there is dust in the front element.

Every hour at the German pavillion when the clock strikes the bell, two Hummel figures come out - just like the Glockenspiel in Munich.

Bought a PCB from Gary Kaufman via Mike Harrison's web site and put it together with some Hivac XN11 nixie tubes.

Now, just to find/build a suitable case for it.....

I had this old clock case, an 8-day movement and some other bits and put them together. Mystery surrounds the 'CALEDONIAN REGISTERED' movements, possibly made in Birmingham around 1880. I thought it looked nice and deserved to be seen.

Tall clock tower near the middle of Amsterdam. I don't know much else about it.

 

More photos taken in Amsterdam during my holiday there.

Clock Tower Maiden is a full Steampunk style outfit with a mesh & fitmesh dress, 5 sizes for each, fitmesh boots, an animated gear key with orange sparkles, and hand sparkles with orange sparkles and cogs.

 

Just in time for those upcoming Halloween parties!

 

I hope you like it!

An inside look at the clock tower in Bangor, PA. The antique four-faced clock was manufactured by the E. Howard Clock Co. of Boston, Massachusetts, and was installed in the borough hall in 1907. In addition to being Bangor’s timepiece, the clock chimed a coded ring to alert the borough fire department as to the location of the fire. They also used the tower to hang the fire hoses after a fire to dry.

 

After a period of neglect when the chimes fell silent, the Slate Belt Heritage Center, under the guidance and care of Jay Albert, brought the historic clock back to life again in early 2000. The help of a generous personal donation helped Jay to single-handedly restore the faces. The clock mechanism was restored by David Morgan, former president of the Worldwide Clock Towers Association.
