Clock #1 is on a rocket with constant velocity .8c moving in direction of Earth where clock #2 is located
When the rocket is 5 light hours away from earth, clocks #1 and #2 are photographed at t=0. At the moment the rocket passes directly overhead clock#2 on Earth both clocks are again photographed.
Clock #2 reads 6:15 (5 light hrs/.8c)
Clock #1 reads 3:45 (.6 x 6.25 hrs.)
