Thanks Everyone.

I really need to get a mini tripod but I spent all my money on the dang watch, so for now I am resting the lens on a rag.

Thanks again,

Danny

Danny.....one question/request....have you managed to get a good shot of your watch showing the LEC?.....I have tried like something mental since I got mine to actually even see the thing.....I read on some thread that it's easier to see it using a laser pointer, maybe I'll try to get hold of one.....a close friend of mine has a GMT II C as well and he doesn't have the greatest eye sight, however he said he has seen his but only in certain light situations and maybe in macro photos.....anyone else out there give me a tip on how to see the elusive LEC?

Very nice Danny.

Get yourself a Gorillapod, they're great for taking shots like these and they're not expensive.

I have seen mine a few times but have not tried to capture it on camera yet. I am going to try to get my paws on a macro today or tomorrow I’ll see what I can do.

I ended up with this

Hi Danny,

Yes, they do work very well.

I have the SLR Zoom version which easily supports my Pentax K10D with a Tamron 70-300 zoom fully extended.

It cost me about £35 here in the UK a couple of years ago.

Loving the latest photo's by the way, I'll need to do some more myself.

Thank you guys for the wonderful comments. I see this as something I enjoy doing so next I will have to load (and learn to use) the photo shop I have had sitting here for months now.
