And for the quiz of the week.... Assuming my watch tells the correct time, what did it show as I took this photo? Happy Fence Friday!! PS, Do not be fooled by the EXIF data!! The answer goes like this:- This is a sundial. The dark brown line is the gnomon, the grey line is its shadow. The shadow indicates a time between 3 and 4, almost 4 o’clock (approx. 3:50). The length of the grey shadow is well off the scale, suggesting it is around the middle of summer. Now the big catch.. Sundials show Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), but in summer UK adds one hour to this as British Summer Time, (BST), so the real time on my watch was approx. 16:50. Now the little subtle points.. As Dimas says, this is east of Greenwich, so the sun will reach its peak 6.4 minutes before the zero meridian. We do not know if the sundial was specifically made and calibrated for this location or not. I could not find this design amongst the generic suppliers, so maybe it was. The EXIF shows an exposure of 1/1000 sec at f5.6, with an ISO of 100, so it must have been pretty sunny, so obviously summer time, hence BST in operation. Ipernity shows this as being taken on 1 January 1900, so obviously incorrect, and can be ignored. The time and date in the EXIF is correct, and shows 2025:07:06 15:54:43.99, My camera is nominally set to GMT, but is 2 minutes fast of GMT. This puts the exact time as 16:52hrs. You could look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundial

Love sculpture, but how many benches are there?

And a man hiding in the tree watching them!! Happy Monday! Best Wishes Peter Some more information about the sculpture is here! - Thanks to Füsun "Battle or love? Review of The Battle of the Sexes - Statue The Danish title of the statue is the "The love battle" - so less violent than the English translation. But who knows what they are fighting about? Is she a willing partner in the embrace - or trying to flee from him? She seems very willing in this dance of courtship in the neoclassic style. The sculptor was a Danish artist, who lived in Paris for a while and took part in the Cubits movement. When WWI started, he had to return home and his following pieces changed in style - like this one from 1921-22. It makes a perfect match for the old royal park."

Christiansfeld is a Moravian Church settlement in Denmark, renowned for its well-preserved town planning and architecture that reflects the church's ideals. Founded in 1773, the town was designed to embody Protestant urban ideals and a democratic, egalitarian philosophy. Its significance as a unique example of Moravian town planning led to its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site See moravianchurchsettlements.org/sites/christiansfeld HFF!
