Zodiac Clock, a photo from Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv

Photographer's Note

This is the first time I realize a Zodiac clock mounted on this building, which I passed by at least a dozen times.
Located on 101 Herzl st., Tel-Aviv, mainly an area of small industries businesses and workshops, a Bauhaus style round fa鏰de building that looks unique to the surrounding.

Location on the map: 32.0538, 34.7709

A Cell-phone picture, cropped from right-side , and a WS attached with a zoom upon the clock. Also, reckon a slight distortion from the street-level upwards POV.

Hi Ike,

The tight frame is putting the building in evidence. The poit of view is showing the details of the building and of the clock. The good luminosity is enhancing the beauty of the colours. Have a nice day.

Shalom Ike. Interesting mix of balconies, aircon units,various sized windows and of course the clock. Not surprised you didn't notice the clock before as the who;e facade is overwhelming with so much stuff. Once the clothes are put out to dry, it's even more chaotic. Excellent exposure and sharpness of details. Regards. Klaudio.

Ciao Ike
l'orologio � molto bello, si vede anche dal particolare nel ws, per� i motori dei condizionatori sono veramente troppi e molto brutti.
Saluti
Carlo

Bonsoir, cher Ike,
Cette horloge "zodiac" ne manque pas d'originalit�. Il fait chaud � voir toutes les sorties des climatiseurs.
J'aime vos photos car elles sont vraies.
Amiti閟.

Hi Ike,
Nice light to present this building and this original clock, good sharpness, tfs.

dkmurphys (79209) 2017-01-17 23:52

Hi Ike,
Interesting clock, I guess if you are always in a car you cannot observe it. I also like the curbed building.

macjake (98544) 2017-01-17 23:59

Hi Ike
now this is what i'm talking about, love seeing some local buildings up close in your city. this is great.
and yeah, that clock is actually easy to miss, i think because its square, and the building has many other square/rectangular shapes - therefore the clock seems to blend in rather than stand out.

the tiny balconies up top are kinda weird, but thats what makes the scene interesting. love it
cheers

Hi Ike,interesting post about this curious zodiac clock,something of colorful in this facade,caught in an excellent way and perfect exposure,you lost a bit the sharpness in the WS but it's obviously a cut and a mistake of the iphone lens. Have a nice day and thanks,Luciano

Hello Ike,
Indeed, very unusual to see any sort of clock on the side of modern residential buildings like this. I like the curved fa鏰de and the repeating motifs offered by the windows and balconies. Very good technical realisation.

Royaldevon (86564) 2017-01-18 6:26

Hello Ike,

Back home from Scotland, I see!

This is a most unusual, curved building, almost as if it has been chopped off at the back. Maybe it had reached a land boundary!
I love how all the balconies protrude at the top, giving the effect of a cog-wheel, as if the building should rotate.
I'm sure you were amazed to take close note of the clock!
It's a fine example and could easily have been the main post.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

holmertz (103732) 2017-01-18 7:08

Hello Ike,
The WS shows beyond doubt that the clock is very attractive, but you are excused for missing it on this rather crowded wall, so full of balconies, signs, and air conditioners. It's a rather original building and it makes for an interesting photo with lovely colours.
Kind regards,
Gert

adramad (73498) 2017-01-18 8:11

Hi Ike.
A building with a curious construction, like its semicircular shape and the continuous line of balconies on the last floor, but what makes it different, is that great zodiacal clock.
Sharpness, lighting, color, and the magnificent composition; Are all factors perfectly accomplished, in this beautiful image.
Well done. I like.
You have a good day.
Best Regards.
Luis.

Hi Ike
Cell phones are becoming better at taking pictures, no doubt. Excellent picture with interesting display of details.

ourania (51103) 2017-01-18 10:36

Hello Ike,
I appreciate the close-up to the clock and it's very interesting to see how it's placed on the facade of the building. The clock stands out and is a surprising feature on this facade that is plain for its colour and repetitive feaures but impressive for its size, shape and upper part. Your picture has remarkable definition and colours. It's amazing how the cars complied with the palette of the building. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hello Ike,
The foreground gives a nice impression of daily life here in this street, while the round facade features a lot of details, of which the zodiac clocks undoubtedly is the most interesting and beautiful. The light is fine and the blue sky is the perfect background.

Witaj Ike!
Curious building, beautiful clock.
Nice colors, light and sharpness.
Well done.
Good night.
Krzysztof

mcmtanyel (69384) 2017-01-18 20:20

Hello Ike,
It looks like somebody gave up a window for that clock to be installed. It is an interesting building with a curved side. I wish they could install those air conditioning units in a more esthetically pleasing way.
Regards,
MT

dta (98848) 2017-01-18 22:23

Hello Ike ,
Not only the zodiac is interesting here , but the entire building . A lot of balconies and many electric elements make it very attractive . Its round shape , too .
I like this kind of original discovery .
Regards

gervaso (28437) 2017-01-19 2:47

Hello, Ike!

Interesting and different architecture of this building with its round shape! Light and sharpness are very good to show the details of the scene! Excellent colors! Very nice composition!

clic (76) 2017-01-19 6:23

Hello Ike In addition to the mighty solar `Rolex', I see many more eye-catchers, located on top floor, that constitute the ancestors of Twitter for the rapid transmission of local news! I appreciate your judicious control on white tones for pleasant details despite direct light. Shalom.

jhm (211738) 2017-01-19 7:18

Hello Ike,

Indeed the clock is not easy to see, on floor five, much walkers passing without to see the clock.
All the much airco are absolutely good to see,
But a very nice daily life picture.
Also excellent sharp and clear.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice day,
John.

alvaraalto (42880) 2017-01-19 7:49

Hello Ike
The Zodiac Clock has found a perfect place on this curves fa鏰de with all the balconies in Bauhaus style. You found the perfect moment and position for the perfect picture if this building. The sunshine gives pleasant and pronounced shadow on the walls and the blue spots gives a great background colour.
Excellent work
Have a nice day

Hello Ike,
An interesting view of the fa鏰de of the building with interesting clock.Interesting and detailed notes.
Very well composed with perfect clarity and fine details.
Nice shot.
Regards
Piotr

npecanhuk (79329) 2017-01-21 2:41

Hello Ike!
Although that fa鏰de is not what we could call attractive, that Zodiac Clock certainly is and the picture is worth specially for that!
Of course, in spite of the ugliness of that building, for a visual interest, the shape, its balconies and air conditioning units work well too!
TFS - congrats,
Cheers,
Enjoy the week-end!

We too have passed by here a few times but FAILED to register this ICON of the city.
LOVELY.

Hi Ike,
the clock indeed adds a very nice decorative touch to the building. It has a nice oval facade.
The light was magnificent, in such light everything looks amazing.
Very well done,
