Experimenting a bit here. Some guests recently left these containers behind, and I became interested in how the fluorescent light from above and to the left illuminated them.

About Time

Just finished reading Rooney's book. A curious work that uses "the history of clocks to look at capitalism, the exchange of knowledge, the building of empires and the radical changes to our lives brought by industrialization." Along the way, he introduces or, in some cases, re-introduces his readers to all kinds of time-keeping devices, including sundials, hourglasses, water clocks, time-finding telescopes, time signals, pocket watches, and, yep, even wristwatches.
