Do you know the cuckoo who lives in there?

Betty said...

Very lovely Ruby Tuesday I like the contrast between the shingles and the red trim and is that a tiny bit of snow I see?

Quite a lovely structure!!

Leif Hagen said...

An impressive clock - easy to see what time it is but looking at the tower!

Ralph said...

This is a wonderful tower, its classic shape formed by the brick, shingle roof and ruby detailing. Modern architecture is probably more efficient - but lacking in the beauty of the past...

toby said...

Ooh, I like it a lot! What a perfect ruby :)

Patti said...

I also like the architectural details, as that Ralph person said, ;-)

This looks like it's quite old. Or is it just built to look old?

Happy Ruby Tuesday!

I like the unique bell tower a lot! And I saw that blue sky you are having too! We had a little blue peeking thru today but it is all gray clouds and rain again now. sigh

Kris said...

That is truly pretty. I adore towers like that. I never get as good shots as you obviously did, though. Lovely. Thanks.

This clock tower looks like it belongs somewhere in England...

Very nice composition, EG! The red "shutters" make the photo (well, the clock, too, of course!).

George said...

I really like this clock tower. It's perfect for Ruby Tuesday.

Carletta said...

Such quaint and loving architecture against a perfect blue sky!

Felisol said...

A special bell tower from about 80-100 years ago, I guess. I like the strong, clear lines,rectangular and circular. The red wood(?) enhances the building, brings dynamic and character to it.
Great shot.
Great building.

P.S.Hope you like the Ken Follet. It's some brick to come through, but it sure is worth while doing.

Becky said...

That is just beautiful EG. I love the architecture.That little snow just sets it off perfectly.

That kind of architecture just begs for a photographer. Lots of interesting details.

A beautiful picture. I wonder how often somebody gets up there to paint?

Robin said...

What a cool structure, I'd never have guessed that it's a library.

Your photos are always wonderful. This one is no exception.

Darla said...

The tiny bit of detail (metal?) at the top just sets it off.
