Ahhhhhhh, that green light ...

It reminds me:

Great pic. That depth of field in low light conditions is exceptional.

Wow, incredible! What kind of exposure length did you need? I ask because I see movement in the minute hand and cannot see the second hand!

Yeah it's glowing because of the luminova on the hour hand on top of it!

Thanks everyone for your great comments! Glad you like it!

That thing looks radioactive! Oh My God you need a tritium monitor to make sure your exposure is at a minimum. No more children for you. Involuntary sterilization from radiation poisoning.

Awesome shot.
