photo hunt : t i m e



themes · home ·
This is our sundial, which is up there not to tell time but for decoration purposes only...
Update: no, it doesn't tell time, the thin rod is missing from the very beginning because the position of this wall isn't appropiate for a somewhat accurate sundial . But we can enjoy the sight of it while sitting in our terrace.

    Wow, that's a great sun dial. I like sun dials for decoration and have tried to position one outside to actually work but the plants keep shading it no matter where I move it so I give up.

    I also like you B post below. Bougainvillea is a favorite of mine although I don't have any. I don't think it would work in our climate but I enjoy it when I visit the coast both in my state and further south. I hope you have a great weekend.

    A sundial to tell time which doesn't...tell time that is :-) I think its no big loss...time is a mental construction anyway. We humans have decided what time is and how it is to be measured...better to forget it and relax, enjoy your life and not be steered by it. Like the sundial!!!

    I am so glad you answered my question about if it works. I didn't see the part that makes it work (I taught a class on sundials once and should know that part's name, but I don't...wonder if DD does? Lol)

    It is a very pretty sundial though.

    I absolutely love the composition of this photo, you really have outdone yourself here. Love the clean look. Captured (or cropped) absolutely perfectly!
