The Millennium Clock Tower is a massive culmination of human artistic achievement, created by four masters for the Scottish Millennium Festival, to commemorate the human suffering of the twentieth century, embodied and entrapped within the endless prisons of time. It is now housed at the Royal Museum in Edinburgh.

This is the Crypt section of the clock.

About Den McKervey

Started taking photos and playing about with Photoshop in May 2011 when my good friend Don Alexander Lumsden gave me his old camera on what we’ll call ‘a long-term loan’ ;) What I didnt realise at the time was that the camera came with a walking, talking instruction manual and encyclopedia of photography!

    Nice one! Great colors and curves. The monkey(?) really looks like he’s working hard. (Time After Time with Malcolm McDowell perhaps?)
