Description Old clocks and watches. I love to photograph such items. They really have a spirit of something unique. They seem to be telling a story by their ticking.
They've got some nice, antique stuff there.
Also lenses for older cameras. I had some nice time playing with them

It lies calmly in shards that wait to be reassembled.
Something makes me sure the clocks will have their second lives

It also reminds of the film Hook

nice work, the colors feel rich and the composition feels, ironically enough, timeless

I really love this one. One would expect focus on the plate with numbers but you just focused on something else which turned out to be really great (it's razorsharp). The colors are fantastic to.

No but it can't have been expensive. These watches were old and mostly damaged. II guess you could drive a hard bargain on a market like this if you had a try

angrymikko In reply to ??? [2007-05-18 20:43:09 +0000 UTC]

I like the subject colour and composition only the light seems to hit all areas equally and that makes it kind of less good. The focus on certain elements feels good.

Monastor In reply to angrymikko [2007-05-18 21:36:45 +0000 UTC]

Some constructive criticism at last
Thanks a lot

I didn't really have much to say when it comes to light. It's not a studio shot so I had to use what I was given in that situation (a cloudy day).
I could change the brightness in corel photopaint but I think it's not a good idea in this case.
What do you think?
