Yacht-master 116622 Blue. Photos by me.

Got the "real camera" out today. Here are three that made the cut.





And some lume:



For those interested, I use a Nikon D3000. These were taken with my Sigma 30mm 1.4.

I will continue to use this thread as my photo dump. Please check back for updates. :)

Thank you three! I appreciate the comment about capturing the colors, it really is tough to accurately portray the beautiful sunray dial (and I still don't think I do it justice).

More for your viewing pleasure:











The first was taken yesterday with my Nikon D3000 + Sigma 30mm 1.4. The rest with my iPhone 6S.

I've been more of a fan of the platinum dial... the blue never really did it for me but these pics are changing my mind. Looks stunning! Great shots!

I drool over the blue but I tried this on and the dial wouldn't let me go

That's what I think is so neat about the variations. I originally went to look at the platinum and the blue spoke to me. Something for everyone.

Just got a cheap-ie macro lens for my iPhone. What was the first thing I took a picture of? My YM of course! Excuse the dust. I hope you enjoy!

Beautiful! I saw your post (shame on me for not commenting). Congratulations! Glad I could help! You've done well at catching the blue dial in the sun.
