I took this shot at the Arboretum near me, it was on top of Coe Hall Manor house, this 65 room mansion was constructed between 1918 and 1921. This is one of the most unusual sun dials that I have ever seen. I had to cut a lot of the bottom off this shot, due to the distortion, because it was so high up. I hope you still like it.

Oh, It was very cloudy that day and was raining off and on, that's why you can't tell what time it was.

Looks like someone is 'blowing their own trumpet', wonderful shot of an unusual subject. As for time, I think it was about 10 past 1.

I've never seen something like this before, we had heads and from their mouths water was running. This reminded me of them. Nice work.

It reminds me of the Jack Benny movie "The Horn Blows At Midnight," but it looks much to light for that Sherree. It is a very unique shot. Looks almost B/W. I like the tones.

Very interesting shot. Good image for as high as it looked to be. I like the gray tone and your dark frame.

I like neutrally colored pics that have some interest as wallpaper...especially when I have a lot of computer work to do. I agree that this is a sun symbol, but it also seems to be combined with a wind symbol to me. (Or it is a gutter drain from the roof!) Nice eye.
