It is a very attractive dial and a nice way to decorate one’s roof. But you may want to photoshop out what appears to be an unmetered electrical tap powering the bar-restaurant across the street.

From: sundial [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dan-George Uza Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2015 3:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Romanian reclining sundial Dear group, I am happy to be able to share a picture of the first Romanian reclining sundial built recently by Damaschin Berende, a friend from a neighboring town. It's made of plywood, it sits on a roof and it features both a EoT correction table and interchangeable hour marks for winter time and daylight saving time. Reported accuracy is so far around 1:30 min. Direction of gnomon across the roof was fixed by taking a plumb bob shadow reading from the base of the gnomon at local noon, the elevation angle was calculated according to the latitudine and the hours were marked on the shadow during September 1st, when EoT was 0. I especially like the wooden pole etched with traditional solar motifs and the rooster on top.
