Thanks for the reply. I applaud your talent.

I find it interesting talking with artists to find their work that they think stands out from their collection.



Huh, favorite watch picture?
I have over 3000 shots, it's kinda hard to pick a favorite.
But I have two shots that I've taken no too long ago and I really like how they have turned out. They are not Rolex, but Doxa SUB300 and G-SHOCK

Thanks. It’s lovely so far just need another link.

Figured I’d temper these pretty photos with a downright crummy photo in low light and a computer screen.

Miss Craig is looking mighty pert tho. RIP

Fantastic photos.

In the first set of photos (#5of 6) shows how the bezel looks all black. I am sure its more fun to show off the blue but in real life the bezel actually looks full black in low light.

Keep up the great work, and please keep sharing!

In real life, really low light, like dark, yes it almost looks black. But every other light it is the best blue I think Rolex makes. I had the bluesy and datejust blue dial and would take the blnr blue every time. The bluesy’s dial in light looks neon which I didn’t like. Also had the root beer and it had the opposite effect. In photos the root beer looks like a dark brown with hints of red. In real life it is a light milky brown. I actually think the blnr looks better in real life than photos. I am so selective based on color/tone, and in opinion the blrn knocks it out of the park.

Wow! I'm stunned by the quality, resolution and overall shots... May I ask what Camara and Lens you used? Is the first pic, photoshopped or how managed to get such shot.

Amazing!

Thanx. And you are correct, the blue really looks very dark or mostly black in low-light situations. Actually on that shot was the light pretty high, but I've desaturated colors a bit go get that vintage vibe

It really depends on the day. After I replied to your post, I browsed through my shots and found new favorites. It all depends really on the type of the shot, if it's macro, or product shot or lifestyle photography.

Now I quite dig these :smoking:

Sure, 90% of the time I'm using Canon 750D and Canon 60mm Macro f:2.8 lens. But lot's and lot's of light. Sometimes natural, sometimes I combine static halogen at 5000k paired with LED panels and speedlight, it all depends on the shot.

For that first pic, I combined two shots, one for the flour background and one for the BatGirl shot itself. Then I merged two shots in photoshop. I normally don't use PS, only Lightroom for small tweaks and edits but this shoot would be super complex and messy if I did it in one take.
