Daytona on ice. Probably the riskiest photo environment yet for me.
Most everyone knows I like to take watch photos. I am always careful with how the watches are positioned and that there’s no chance of damaging the watch but sometimes you have to just go for it. Today is a balmy 3 degrees and bright sunshine so other than the cold it’s great light for some winter watch pics. Creek was almost totally frozen but the rapids had a beautiful hand of ice in the sun begging for a cool pic.
![]() The chances I take for a good forum watch pic. ![]() This one instantly became my screen saver. ![]() ![]()

Nice photo! I'm nervous for you. One slip and who knows what would have happened.

Mystro, thank you for the wonderful photo!
Putting a Daytona in a risky environment is not for the faint of heart! Great detail by the iPhone! |

Thanks everyone. I was totally prepared to go after the watch if the ice ledge broke off. I would have dropped the 13 Pro to grab the Daytona as it would have bounced down the rocks in the current.
![]() It was a fun experience and another cool “memory made” with the Daytona and I guess that’s really the point of why we are into this hobby to begin with. ![]()

Great shot. You needed to cool down the red hot market for this timepiece.

I'm new here
![]() ![]() I guess that's why OP's name is "Mystro" ![]() P.S. No picture is showing up for me, neither on PC nor mobile ![]() P.P.S. Must be my TRF settings because none of OP's dropbox photos from any of his posts are showing up for me... |

Having some clear fishing line could be good to carry around on your photography jaunts.

Mystro, beautiful photos, just beautiful. I don't know how you do it though ... before placing my watch down on just a counter I have to grab a soft polishing cloth to lay it on. Man, I need to loosen up!
