This is the pic.

So was that nothing fancy. I had picked up things but recreated the setup again to show how it looks when I made the pic.

I hope some of you get inspired.

SubmarinerMariner · 15 June 2012, 04:02 AM

Any particular settings on the lens for this shot? F-stop, ISO, aperture speed, etc? Or did you just focus on the area you wanted to shoot, and let it fly?

It's really an inspired picture and something that I'm thing about trying to recreate. Well done!!!

Numismatist · 15 June 2012, 04:05 AM

How many shots did you take before you got that one?

you have a good memory jocke. i didn't think that you would have remembered all of it when i told you.

amazing

SRVwannab · 15 June 2012, 07:30 AM

Thanks for sharing, Jocke. For some reason I thought it would be really easy to combine to hobbies of mine- watches and photography. It took about one attempt for me to realize that capturing watches the way so many on this forum have is way more difficult than I ever imagined.

Thanks for sharing the set-up for the photo. :)
