I really like both images. But, I think I prefer this one. I love the very shallow narrow depth that is portrayed in the original photo but since I was able to have the chance to see this one I think I prefer it. I am not as distracted by the depth but we still get the idea of the age of the watch and what it has been through. From the first one I get the feeling of more fleeting time since the DOF is so extreme. two very different shots. Definitely a well deserved DD. Hope I didnt babble too much

I prefer this one. I like the straight-in-your-face-ness. Macro photography doesn't need depth or bluriness.

this one looks just amazingly old.
I think the overall tone of the image, the composition and the detail are all points that speak for this piece.

Happy to help.
Both versions "work" fine, it simply depends on what you're trying to convey/lead you viewer.
This one is the more detailed and intricate of the two and it's possible that a casual viewer would actually miss the misplaced and backward "3."
Your other shot is the antithesis of this (although they are very similar) insofar as having your limited depth of field "tell' the viewer exactly where to focus their attention and what to look for.
Ultimately, whichever way you decide to present this concept is strictly up to your own interpretation of what you're trying to sell to the viewer's brain and eye.
Either way. Great shots.

Not a problem.
You had your bases well covered either way. Both are GREAT shots.
However, like the original "Dirty Harry" film line: I GOTS TA KNOW...
Which shot did *you* choose to convey what you ultimately wanted to say?
(I'm guessing the narrow depth of field shot. Don't spare my feelings if I'm wrong.)
Cheers!

You are quite correct, the original Macro Time is my favorite. I liked the limited depth of field and the drawn out look. There were also very specific areas that were sharpened and highlighted.
Thanks for taking the time to write.
Regards
