Eastgate Clock in Chester, Cheshire, England, stands on the site of the original entrance to the Roman fortress of Deva Victrix. It is said to be the most photographed clock in England after Big Ben. It was erected in 1889 to celebrate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee of 1897. Until 1974 it was wound once a week.

Your photo treatment is excellent, Eve. I think the inside white stripe is too wide and distracting. 1 or 2 pixels width should be plenty if the sizing option is available to you.

Yup!! A very creative and artistic endeavor Lynn but I agree as well that the white line's a bit to wide. Other than that I do like this a lot:):)

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Another splendid image from you, I think the inside frame is a bit distracting, less I think would be better. Tigs♥ =^..^=

I like the effect you have used here. I too would prefer it without the white frame. Nice manip. Lyn.

Really good manipulation - I like the way the color tones came out.
