Photographed on a cloudy day. Except for the pigeons, the clock tower fit the bill for balance. Cropped the image of the roof to get just the tower; rotated slightly counter clockwise to compensate for the angel of the shot; desaturated the image; brightened the sky and adjusted the contrast curve; added a border; adjusted for web size; cloned and erased an antenna that was only on the right; and finally sharpened.

You put that title so you'd get comments, didn't you? It worked! Looks like 11:13ish to me. I like the centered composition. The lack of background color looks okay with this photo. IMO, it allows the viewer to focus on the subject without distractions. Speaking of distractions, the border is somewhat on the thick side. A more conservative approach would compliment it better. Overall, I like your subject choice and your presentation of it.
