Prague's Ancient Timekeeper | Prague 2013 | Snugug Photography

A low-angle shot of the Prague Astronomical Clock, a medieval astronomical clock located in Prague, Czech Republic. The clock is mounted on a tall, weathered stone tower which fills most of the frame and has an irregular brickwork texture. The clock itself is composed of two large circular dials. The upper dial, the astronomical clock, has a blue and gold face with Roman numerals and Gothic script, featuring various astronomical indicators and intricate hands. Statues of figures with halos and instruments stand on either side of the upper dial. Below the upper dial is the calendar dial, which is a circular, golden disc decorated with zodiac signs and images representing the months. On either side of the calendar dial, stand figures dressed in period clothing. The entire clock is heavily ornamented with decorative carvings and architectural details. Above the clock face is a small archway with two windows and a golden statue visible inside. Above this is the tower, constructed of the same stone, stretching upwards. The sky above the tower is a pale blue. — Prague's Ancient Timekeeper
