THE UNION SQUARE METRONOME

The Union Square Metronome Clock located in Union Square in New York City. This clock has been the subject of much debate over the years with many people trying to figure it out. The popular consensus is that the numbers to the left show the National Debt but this is incorrect.

This is actually a clock which is also an art installation of sorts. The numbers to the left are counting down the time since midnight and the numbers on the right are counting towards midnight. It's a little confusing but once you know what it really is and understand the way it works it becomes more clear. Either way it's a beautiful piece of work and is the centrepiece of Union Square.

My name is Mark Andrew Thomas and I'm a photographer and filmmaker currently residing in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. I grew up in Florida right next to the Everglades and although I photograph a wide variety of subjects and locations, the Florida Everglades will always be my first love. In my career I've had the honor of working with the NatGeoWild Channel, Animal Planet, Discovery Science Network, ABC HD, and other worldwide media outlets. I hope you'll find something here that speaks to you and brings you joy, rekindles your sense of wonder, or brings back a great memory of a place you've been to. Thank you for visiting! ~ Mark Andrew Thomas
