ABC Wednesday: S is for Sundial

Shooting my sundials for an S word I also captured my squeaky swing as well as shadows.

This sundial is situated correctly and keeps splendid time.

This sundial is two hours fast and needs to be settled into a better position.

My sundials used to sit on top of my deck wall until I started growing vines over it. You can see the shadows of the vines that haven't lost all of their leaves yet for winter.

Gillian Olson said...: Great "S" shot. Love the sundial, shadows and that squeaky swing has character. We have a sundial too, but not much good this time of year as you need sun and we haven't had much.; November 22, 2011 at 12:03 PM

Hazel said...: Ahh the beauty of charm! Your porch is it. I love swings. Your sundial is intriguing with its speed. Thanks again for showing us the beauty around you.; November 22, 2011 at 8:26 PM
Hildred said...: A lovely collection of sun dials. Does time pass slowly when you are out relaxing in the squeaky swing?; November 22, 2011 at 11:02 PM

Laloofah said...: I love sundials (don't have one though - yet!) What a special post for S week, with your squeaky swing, sundials and shadows (and don't forget those Scattered leaves!) Your deck looks like a very serene and inviting place to sit and relax.

I too had no idea sundials could run fast - can they run slow, too? (Don't reckon they need to be reset for Daylight Saving Time, though!) :-); November 23, 2011 at 9:23 AM
Gattina said...: In summer I would love to sit on this old bank and watch the sundials ! But I doubt that I can read them, I never tried.; November 23, 2011 at 3:05 PM
Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...: How wonderful! For the "S" meme and also just because I adore the sundial -- they are just charming. I wonder if one would work in Florida?; November 23, 2011 at 7:47 PM
