Midday chimes by maggiemae

Midday chimes

Favourite chiming clock is an antique with a lovely sound. It has to be wound up with a key which we cannnot lose! It keeps very good time.
Love the wood--beautiful carving. Wonderful shot, maggiemae.

Beautiful light and shadows! Lovely wood tones! Looks like oak? I have an old RA wall clock that keeps good time as long as I keep it wound. =)

Beautiful old clock. I really like the grain of the wood. My father was a horologist so I have a few old clocks laying around here.

I love those old clocks! I have two but the innerds don't work anymore, so no more chimes. )o: Nice shot!

What a beautiful clock! This just made me think about the clocks in our house - I think they are all digital. I need to change that!!

Lovely, Maggiemae! I love these clocks ... wonderful capture of this. We have a wall hanging chime clock, but we don't wind it anymore. Always woke us up at night. :)

@marlboromaam Yes, Mags, it is an oak one and likes a polish now and then!

@yonnie I think this is called a 'barley twist", Yvonne which I particularly like!
August 2nd, 2012  
@lindag We forget to wind it up too but I like the sound in the middle of the night coming from the lounge so try and remember!
August 2nd, 2012  
@lindag We have a clock maker in town (not a very big town) and he is so good at fixing clocks!

@yentlski We can't 'do' sounds on 365, can we!

I love the grain in the timber and its deep rich colour. You have treasured it and looked after it very well. I can feel a pun coming on - its a timeless piece. LOL
August 2nd, 2012  
It had such a lovely deep colour! The light is lovely falling on the globules and on the grain!
August 2nd, 2012  
Beautiful!

Lovely antique clock with such beautiful wood tones. I have one handed down from my mother that needs repair, but I still keep it sitting on the shelf because it is so beautiful.

Lovely old clock Maggie, have one myself but a different shape, they are better than the new ones.
August 2nd, 2012  
Maggie, I just caught up on all of your photos. They are beautiful. So crisp and diverse.
August 2nd, 2012  
These are real clocks with a comforting tick and chime

@doblaine Haha, David! But it really is! We look at this one more than the digital numbers on the oven and microwave!
August 2nd, 2012  
@tonygig Love to see a pic of it, Tony!
August 2nd, 2012  
@hankt Totally agree,Henry! It has a real melodious chime and only every 1/2 hour!
August 2nd, 2012  
@ptowncook Thanks, Laura! I try to be diverse! No butterflies round here and not too many flower photos! Or bird ones!

Lovely capture. Beautiful clock but it's time does not match your camera. :)
August 4th, 2012
