A vertical declining dial (south west) in Eyam Derbyshire England. 53°17′03″N 1°40′29″W / 53.28420, -1.67471Top view of an equatorial sundial.  The hour lines are spaced equally about the circle, and the shadow of the gnomon (a thin cylindrical rod) rotates uniformly.  The height of the gnomon is 5/12 the outer radius of the dial.  This animation depicts the motion of the shadow from 3 a.m. to 9 p.m. on mid-summer's day, when the sun is at its highest declination (roughly 23.5°).  Sunset and sunrise occur at 3am and 9pm, respectively, on that day at geographical latitudes near 57.5°, roughly the latitude of Aberdeen or Gothenburg.Benoy Sun Clock showing 6.00pm - 18.00 hoursAny celestial body, such as a star or the Sun, appears to rotate about the celestial axis over the course of a 24-hour day.
