Picture of my iPhone taken with my Touch at the exact 2 seconds (am and pm) when time was 11:11:11 and date was 11-11-11. Will have to wait 100 years to do this next again.
This gigantic clock, at the heart and peak of the old asylum, somehow lends an appropriate gravitas to the structure. With four large dials, each crested by a gracefully sculpted "bishop's hat" arch, it is is a fine sight to behold through a long lens.
To see some excellent historical views taken from atop this tower during the hospital's later operational days in the 1990s, click here. Fellow Leeds-based urban exporer Phill.d also posted some great images from inside the tower back in 2007: click here to have a look at what lies within.
inside the clock tower at BOCM Pauls Selby. The faces and mechanism have been "saved." The rest is now rubble.
My wife's grandfather was given this clock as a leaving present, after working for 45 years for British Rail.
Today the Hereios of the We're Here! group are getting into black and white details.
Clocks I made for my Architecture of Objects Course. Inspired by Art Deco style desk clocks from the 1920's - 30's
Clock and jeweler historian Paul Middents gave a half-hour talk discussing the history of street clocks in Seattle and Bremerton, and focusing on the life and career of Joseph Mayer. Mayer manufactured perhaps 100 street clocks in addition to manufacturing spoons, urns, trophies, medals, streetcar tokens and other items.
The audience at the Kitsap County Historical Society was comprised of street clock fans and experts from around the country.
We visited the clock on the screen the previous day: www.flickr.com/photos/tigerzombie/15335618391/in/photostr...
200 day clock, German-made Haller. This is an unusual torsion clock which is designed to run for only 200 days instead of the usual 400 days. There is an unique slip-mechanism for winding up the main spring which prevent overwinding (just like a mechanical watch) not commonly found in most design. Gold colour finish throughout and a standard 400 day clock flora face. The 4 support columns (usually there are 2) is another unique feature of this clock. This is a modern '400 day' clock made in the late 90’s. This must be one of the very last mechanical torsion clock ever produced by Haller or for that matter, any mfg in the world. About 12 “ tall under glass dome cover. I bought it brand new in 2002

Only Time will tell and every clock tells a story....
The problem with clock is, once you got two they start to multiply..

It was a non-working clock which I wanted to hang up for display. After a while, I felt something amiss. A clock is not a clock if it does'nt work! So I took it apart and do some fixing, to my surprise I managed to get it ticking again ! I was totally fascinated From there I got my second, third and so on....
My favourite has to be the 400 day clock
Amazing time piece and fun to repair Next in line is those of the electromechanical design type
I love the working principles
At the time of writing, my collection is still growing....but has grind to a halt as my interest is now focus on nature photography

This small station operates as a turnout for the trains of the Pre-Alps Express. The beautiful clock that I saw a couple of times from the train was the reason to take a closer look at this station on occasion. Thereby I discovered the amazing ticket system Handomat. Only the trains of the Southeastern-Railways (SOB) stops here on request. Altmatt SZ, Switzerland, July 26, 2010.
Anagalis arvensis known as shepherd's clock,shepherd’s sundial and shepherd’s weather-glass suggest, scarlet pimpernel is well-known for its ability to indicate both the weather and the time of day.

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 :))
Hoher Markt, Vienna. Designed by Franz Matsch for Anker Insurance Co and built 1911-17 and originally intended to commemorate an Austrian Victory in the Great War. Rulers of Austria move through the windows either side as time passes.
Two clocks in the lobby of the Gage building in Chicago. The one on the left is a painted image; the one on the right is truly a clock but it is broken. Each of the clocks is right twice a day.
