Self portrait with Diver.
Yes, poser shot, only marginally better than an iphone selfie (or worse maybe?)... but the Diver just looked so damn good I felt I should post.

It's actually a very nice picture, but just cannot accept at all open beer in a car for any reason, sorry. Way too many people have been hurt by these two things mixing.
Trying to understand how an open beer got in a car, and if even for a pic, just does not seem the right the thing to glorify. Sorry to derail the thread of an otherwise nice picture and watch, minus the open beer.

Oh boy...

Okay, so the beer was actually drunk by a passenger a couple nights back. It just happens to be sitting there empty in the passengers drink holder. Didn't even cross my mind when I took the shot. Believe it or not, I was only testing out a new remote flash. The only part of the composition I was fully aware of was my watch face pointing towards the lens...

However, I understand the concern.

It's all good, guess I'm just overly sensitive. Take care. More Diver pics.....
