Among the landmarks of historic Halifax, none is more recognized than the Old Town Clock. Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, arranged for a turret clock to be manufactured for the Halifax garrison. The Town Clock officially began keeping time for the garrison on October 20, 1803 and has served the residents of Halifax ever since.
Completely unscathed by hurricane Juan that pounded the city with winds reaching 150 km/h (94 mph) six days before this shot was taken! Impressive.
Original shot was cropped, lightly sharpened and colour tweaked using Auto Color.

Post card colors and focus. Clock is a little hard to really see, but do know it is there. A very busy photo but doesn't really hurt it much. Good job.
Good and clear and colors are very good. My one suggestion would be to try to have shot this without the people in the picture (They distract from the quality)
Early morning before they arrive is a good time maybe.
I find this image to be a bit too cluttered and bottom heavy for a portrait format. Colors are vivid but lighting is too harsh as man walking towards camera is obscured by shadow.
great colors! very nice.. you have people too on the picture.. most in this challenge dont.
i don get it.. is there a big ship behind the mountain? strange
I like the bold colors in this photo. I think the woman's blue coat on the right and the other woman's white jacket make it work better for that dark area of the photo.
