A close up of Christ (above) and Death (below) on the astronomical clock in Strasbourg Cathedral. They move when the clock chimes.
My zoom is stronger than my flash, which is why this photo is grainy. Sorry!
this is the clock notice board outside the local Primary School. I knew that the clock was there but waited till Saturday, when the school was closed, before taking my camera up to the corner by the school. I am lucky that this clock notice board runs 24/7 not just in school hours. Not only did I get to find out what time of day it was but also when to buy school uniforms and the air temperature outside. Nice warm sunny winter's day!
8. An outdoor or public clock
Sure, everyone knows about grandfather clocks, but I came across the a little tiny clock with a spinning ball!
A fancy street clock, on the side of a building in the Sorbonne, Paris, France. I want one of these in my living room!
Last iPhone picture for a while I hope. Long day ... out of town and my youngest wasn't feeling well (headache, fever, nausea). Decided we ought to drive home a day early when he started experiencing pain in his lower back. This clock was in the ER, where we spent several hours. Thank goodness it's just a viral thing and he just needs rest. This was the only pic I took today and after the 5 hour drive home it's all I have to give.

To the brand new day -

time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life -William Faulkner
this is the coolest, most interesting clock i have ever seen, that hangs upon the wall my friend, sandy's house.
"Time is the most undefinable yet paradoxical of things; the past is gone, the future is not come, and the present becomes the past even while we attempt to define it, and, like the flash of lightning, at once exists and expires." ~Charles Caleb Colton
..i put two quotes because i couldn't choose which one i liked more. they both make me think, and i hope they make you as well.
This is a reconstruction based on remains at All Saints' Church, Highcross Street, Leicester, supplemented by documentary evidence. The original carved wood quarter-jacks disappeared many years ago, but traditionally dates back to the early 17th Century. In Jacobean costume, they represented heralds.
Like it's predecessor, this clock operates every quarter-hour, and chimes the hour on the hour.
Constructed with aid of National Lottery funds and installed in October 1999 to mark the beginning of a new millennium.
Cathédrale Notre-Dame of Strasbourg
The Strasbourg astronomical clock is located in the Cathédrale Notre-Dame of Strasbourg, Alsace, France. It is the third clock on that spot and dates from the time of the first French possession of the city (1681–1870). The first clock had been built in the 14th century, the second in the 16th century, when Strasbourg was a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire.
The current, third clock dates from 1843. Its main features, besides the automata, are a perpetual calendar (including a computus), an orrery (planetary dial), a display of the real position of the Sun and the Moon, and solar and lunar eclipses. The main attraction is the procession of the 18 inch high figures of Christ and the Apostles, which occurs every day at solar noon, while the life-size cock crows three times.
The clock from the main pavilion. A pretty unremarkable photo but one I hope that has been improved by the B&W treatment.
The pavilion is currently due to be renovated under a £4m program. Seems a lot of money but I understand the construction fabric of the building is difficult to repair and in very bad condition.
