... seen those before, but I just love those two shots.
I consider them to be some of my better shots. You can almost see and feel the age of the watch..

Beautiful macros, Chip. Care to share your lighting setup?

badsmac · 26 January 2008, 05:59 AM

Hey fellow DFW member, great shots!

I too will have to "borrow those for some desktop pics.
Thanks

rpryan55 · 26 January 2008, 08:35 AM

Sooooo cool. Love those pics. I agree, you can almost feel the age of that watch, you can almost touch it.

Thanks for the pictures.

That was actually shot in daylight on my kitchen table, and the lighting that you see in the final shot was all done in Photoshop.
