Clock Tower of the library, High Street. The library is dedicated to poet Elizabeth Barrett-Browning, who lived and wrote in the town.
Another angle of the same clock. The custom-built Nixie sockets can also be seen clearly from this angle.
Yes, there is some ghosting (most visible with the faint '2' in the ten's digit of the hour.) I need to recheck my timing delays in the software.
This is a representation of my night last night. 10.30pm, went to bed, 2.30am awake for a short time, 3.50am awake for at least an hour, 7.30am alarm goes off!!
Pregnancy insomnia is a horrible thing. Whether its getting up to go to the loo or just being generally uncomfortable, I'm usually awake at least twice a night at the moment.
Tiredness and having to deal with a 2 year old during the day is not making things fun at the moment.
Thank goodness we have less than 7 weeks left (hopefully). Then it will be sleepless nights due to baby, but at least there is a purpose to that and its strangely easier to cope with..

Lighting:
To capture a reflection, the intended source has to be well lit. I started by aiming 2 flashes where my face would be. The flashes were positioned in front of the clock so the light would not spill onto it. The left flash had a 7 inch reflector+grid. The right flash had a round head (approx 2.5")+barndoors.
To light the rest of the clock I added a flash+softbox behind it on the left, a reflector on the right and another reflector right under the camera.
With apologies to Salvador Dalí I was lucky enough to visit the The Dalí Universe at County Hall in London. It was amazing.
Today the We're Here group members are remembering that British Summer Time starts tonight and the clocks must be altered
The completed clock with hands attached.
The clock is composed of two servos, an Arduino, and an ethernet module. The clock updates every fifteen minutes by checking the Environment Canada website and updates the hands accordingly.

Clock Knot by Mark di Suvero on the University of Texas campus, Austin Texas, August 26, 2009. The monumental sculpture Clock Knot is located on the northeast corner of Dean Keeton and Speedway, and stands 41 feet tall. Mark di Suvero (born as Marco Polo di Suvero) is an American abstract expressionist sculptor born in Shanghai, China in 1933 to Italian expatriates. He came to San Francisco, California in 1941, and attended the University of California, Berkeley. While working in construction, he was critically injured in a freight elevator accident and focused all his attention on sculpture.

at the Jules Simoneau Plaza:
four streets come together here: Munras, Pearl, Tyler and the end of Alvarado is close
time, as in noon.
time passing... as in history. Where this clock now stands and buses stop, a restaurant once stood. A boarding house was nearby and still exists as a historical relic, and a general store still stands also as a historical building and store.
It was here that Robert Louis Stevenson ate each night during his stay in Monterey in 1879, a stay that some think inspired the story of Treasure Island.
This awesome crochet clock was made for me by my Dear Friend Dawn... didn't she do an amazing job???
One of the four clock faces of the Royal Liver Building and at 7.5 metres (24.6 feet) in diameter, larger than Big Ben. The clocks were made by Gent & Co of Leicester and prior to installation, Royal Liver executives and civic dignitaries held a special dinner, with one of the clock faces used as a dining table.
A 1920s vestige from now-vanished Union Trust Company Bank in downtown St. Pete stands in proud isolation pending redevelopment of the site.
A large clock in downtown Chesapeake City, MD. Probably the only thing I miss about living in a small town is a close-knit downtown like this.

RESTORE!! (This was one of my New Year's "guidelines," to restore or repair old things and make them new again). I took an old clock that I have had since about 1967 and made it over into something quite different. It might be gaudy for some, but I like how it matches the multi-colored frames on my nightstand now.
Basically I cleaned up the old hardware and scraped old glue, then painted the wood parts of the clock gold. I then attached glass crystals in various sizes and colors to make something that looks like it could come from the thieves' cave that Ali Baba visits (or so I tell myself).
While I did this I watched the uncut version of 1954's "The Egyptian," directed by Michael Curtiz. OMG what a long and melodramatic movie!!! I saw it years ago but I had forgotten most of it.
