The Archer Mill Clock Tower in Lawrence, MA, is one of the largest working clock towers in the world. In the western world, it is second only to London's Big Ben. It was built in 1891, rises to 267 feet, and has a 4,850 pound copper/tin bell, and clock works made up of 2100 pounds of brass and cast-iron with springs and gears powered by a 14.5-foot pendulum.

Interesting and nicely rendered, thanks! I especially like photo #2 and the composition of photo #4.

Thanks for your comments. While recently visiting friends, I got a chance to get a few shots of the city, and found it to be a good place for some street photography.

Great images. Too bad all the manufacturing has gone, though.

All great shots. Would suggest the wires in #5 be taken out in your image software.

Thanks for commenting.
The images are out of the camera - no prost processing.
I neither use nor own imaging software (such as Photoshop or Lightroom).
