Clocks from the Street

Fantastic arcade. The Queen Victoria Building is a heritage-listed late-nineteenth-century building, in the Romanesque Revival style, designed by the architect George McRae located at 429-481 George Street in the Sydney central business district, in the Australian state of New South Wales.
It has a few of these stunning clocks hung from the glass vaulted roof so you never have to wonder what the time is.
How to photograph the Marshall field clock?
Iconic landmarks, the clocks were designed by the firm of Graham, Anderson, Probst and White, for the store's architect D.H. Burnham.
Each clock is made of 7¾ tons of cast bronze.
The face of the clock is 46" across, the minute hand is 27" and the hour hand is 20½" long. The clock is impulse operated from a master timepiece located in the store. The timepiece is checked twice daily with the Arlington time signal and corrects the clocks every hour.
Photographed over the century countless times, I wanted to present it not as a clock, but as part of the history of our city. Melding it into the city-scape as a face in the crowd.
The clock you see was installed at State and Washington in 1907 and as time moves "One Way" - second by second, minute by minute it is suddenly 2023.
I love how that "one way" sign becomes crucial in the narrative and an anchor for the deep perspective.

9月になった。はやっ。
毎日暑い。しかも今週末台風がすごいっぽい？！？
何もなく過ぎ去りますように。
劇落ちした体力を戻すべく、運動を始めております。
最初10分も持ちませんでしたが、
なんとか30分動けるように。
所詮ゲーム！と侮っておりましたが、
姿勢も良くなってきたし、すごいねぇ。ゲームさまさま！
Clock tower the symbol of Izmir is in Konak Square - the heart of the city. It was built in 1901 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Abduhamit II's accession to the throne.

The famous clocks at Canary Wharf from a recent visit by Caroline and myself to London.
We took loads of pictures having the time to review them is quite challenging time wise.
Taken for this week's Macro Mondays theme 'Timepieces'. The face of this small carriage clock is about 4 " in diameter. I liked the way that using a light source at the side threw the shadows of the hands across the face.
