Unique sundial that requires a person to stand in the right position (seasonal adjustment marked on the ground) and their shadow tells the time.

Unique sundial that requires a person to stand in the right position (seasonal adjustment marked on the ground) and their shadow tells the time. The person becomes part of the time piece itself.
The Mount Annan Botanic Gardens are an off-shoot of the Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney and specialise in presenting native plants from across Australia. It has excellent facilities for families with BBQ areas and lots of toilets, a very good restaurant for the discerning cacher and a small nursery specialising in native plants.
The gardens are a regular haunt for this clan.
For the Sundialists: the GPSr time was 2:30pm and I don't think my shadow could have been any closer to dead centre between the 2 and 3 markers.
