F14D_Tomcat - Thank you man! What is the OR? Ocean Racer? If yes, there is a few shots with it, if its something diferent, tell me what and if i have it, i can shot some images :)


Yes, it is the Ocean Racer, my mistake I didn't pay attention to your first pics :oops:

Then again, I'm partly excused. I was so dazzled by your recent pics...

mrcheatle - i try to do some photo documentation about how to do it, its very simply. Everyone can do it - my camera costs about 700 USD (SONY NEX-3) or 350 USD (used "vintage" Canon 300D), watches everyone there have, somebody a lot and 5-15 minutes free time too :) Its not about the equipment. If ill have time tomorrow, i make a photo serial how to take some shot and information about the postprocesing with coparing original one and finished one. Hope you will like it, but you need to read it in my extremelly bad english :D

JacksonStone, this is a beautiful photo. This thread has forced me to rethink my photography and return to playing my Accordion. This thread has some of the best photo's of watches I've seen anywhere.
Thanks, Best health, Frank.

I Photoshopped the hell out of it, but if you want to give it a go, have at it. I'll send you the raw jpeg, and will be interested to see what you do.

Thats a very good improvement between the two pics spiderer. What parameters do you play with in photoshop? I am looking forward to reading your write-up on photoshop so I can play with it too and hopefully make my pics as good as yours. I'm also looking forward to see what you can do with Jackson's pics :)

Jackson, your last pic is kickass!

I just realized my Photobucket settings were degrading the resolution of my uploads. I think I fixed it, so here's another bite at the apple with a slightly different photo.

This string is just mesmerizing and agonizing at the same time. I'm reducing my collection, and you're just ripping me up with those CSO photos. Seriously, though the work here is fantastic. Whenever this string has an update, I come here first.
