For the time, it is incredibly sophisticated. It also shows that gears were well mastered ! This is the only existing trace of this knowledge ! This is probably because it was sunk as part of the load of a boat while any existing gear on ground was recycled in something else ! Still, this is just amazing !
A great scientific accomplishment impossible to do after centuries after… and also artistically it is quite beautiful. So many calculus in just one device is breathtaking.
You’re welcome. ^^ And thank you.. I think your pictures and words are also a very beautiful gift. So true, the places there really give that sense of timelessness. ^-^
You’re always welcome as well dear Nicole n_n To me it was like see a kind of solar watch. What is funny because it’s just to set the border of the Air Force property unu
Beautiful shadow against the swirled land. Where were you standing when you shot this great photo?

another technically extremely very advanced, though antique, sidereal clock : http://www.antikythera-mechanism.gr/ Have a good night, Francis !
Oh, I love that master work!! it’s fantastic the thought and science in that artifact. Thank you, Gilles. Good day.

Amazing as usual Francis! What can I say!
Thank you dear Landa. It’s in the desert, lands of the Air Force ^.^
oooops :)
^-^
I think there’s a need. I mean, I took a watch into my high school math exam, and obviously the exam lasted eternity.
Haha, Dalí would say something similar with his melting clocks.
that’s all too deep for me :) but I like the picture.
It’s so deep that I am in danger to drown. : D
Timeless horizons.. between skies and the earth, shadow and light, and beyond any measure. ^_^
Thank you for your gift poetess. It is quite beautiful and is the truth of this place. ^-^

It’s from the window of a bus in movement in the highway. I was just sat next to the window. ^_^
How nice to be in the bus and not worry about driving! You take great photographs from your window. 🚌o
It’s the only way (besides walking) I use. Someday I have to learn to drive hehe, I know in your country you are driving since 15 I think?
Yes, most start pretty early. I was 20. My folks were very strict. They thought I’d pick up boys. 😜
You could have said “but just good ones ;-)”
Hahaha! Yes, I’m sure they would’ve believed me😊
:D
Truly amazing!
Thank you, Inese, i hope you feel better of the flu. ^_^
Thank you! :)
