Oh,no. I only had one shot that I found relatively quickly and it’s also a sun dial. 😦

Nice photo, Debbie… 2 o’clock, I make it? I’m hopeless with sundials.

Spot on, I reckon, Tom. Well done.
And I enjoyed your flit back in time. Some things last forever don’t they!

Like the way it seems to divide the clouds in the sky https://alondonmiscellany.wordpress.com/2021/06/06/time/

That sort of thing depends how patient I feel and whether I’m on my own. Waiting for the clouds to be in the right spot can make a big difference to the feel of the image

I searched and searched for my sundial photo to no avail. So I took the next option which people now-a-days see when encountering a sundial 🙂

I liked your mix, Sue. And the Palace is at the end of the park you’ll enter through next time, so maybe you can catch it then 🙂

I learned how to make an accurate sun dial many years ago, if I recall correctly the angled piece that casts the shadow is a gnomon although I’ve no idea if that spelling is even remotely close.
I went with a different take on the prompt:

Oh, that must be a fascinating thing to learn. I might investigate!
And I loved your take on time

You need to know the latitude that the sundial will be used at the get the angle needed for the gnomon. I drew up the plans and my father made one out of brass. It was surprisingly accurate.

I might go and play a bit more next time. Maybe a wider lens as I’d have liked a fuller view of the sundial.
