I usually get 50-50 questions wrong, ha.
For northern hemisphere looking south, the sun's shadow would cross from right to left, and the hour numbers increase clockwise. This is what is shown, so this is for the northern hemisphere.
For the southern, the shadows would move from left to right, and the hour numbers would have to increase counterclockwise... but in the image they do not.
Eh?
