Hello all:

I've been investigating existing monumental ( very large) horizontal
sundials which use a vertical perpendicular gnomon instead of the
traditional pole style.  Amazingly, after a thorough search of the web (Yes,
I checked the NASS site this time!), I was only able to find two sundials in
the world of this type.  My client likes the idea of a sculptural presence
and prefers a permanent gnomon rather than a human gnomon.

The first dial I found is a beautiful "bow tie" dial designed by Luke
Colletti <www.gcstudio.com/images/parkdial.jpg>. The other wonderful dial is
the Isserplatz dial at <www.chem.vt.edu/chem-dept/field/reutted.htm>

Does anybody know of any fotos of other sundials of this type?

Thanks
