10:30 CLUB: Canary Wharf

The 10:30 Club

The 10:30 Club is aiming to be the largest photographic collection of Clock Faces from Timepieces on Public Buildings around the world at only two points in any day, when the clock shows 10:30. You can help the club enter the Guinness World Records with the largest collection of Public Clock Faces set at 10:30.

Join The 10:30 Club by submitting a photograph of any Clock Face on any public building when it shows the time as exactly 10:30 am or pm.

Please send your photo as a jpeg to: john@johnsworld.co.uk

along with a little detail about what the clock is and where it is located along with confirmation that you own the photograph and your permission to publish it.

If you also send your name and email address we will send you a 10:30 Club Membership Certificate as a thank you.

If you are a keen photographer you may have more opportunity to take that extra photograph for a bit of fun. Please tell your friends and if you are a member of a photographic society or camera club or photographic forum please mention the website for a fun photo opportunity.

Lets see how quickly we can develop this collection and where it takes us.

Thanks for stopping by and please come back occasionally and if possible remember us at 10:30

Kind Regards

John

Canary Wharf - London

Spot On 10:30am

Canary Wharf London

A design competition was set up for proposals for Nash Court.

Six Public Clocks by Konstantin Grcic was the winning design.

This is based on the iconic Swiss railway clock, however each face only has one numeral and they are all set to the same time. German designer Grcic is better known for his furniture and product design, which is both modernist and elegant.
