Oooops! I dropped two watches in the drink!

Not quite the result I was hoping for. Need to get some more stuff and find a floor that is a bit more stable, but I still thought I'd share my first attempt.









Hopefully I can find some time to try again next weekend.

I like the way how on the close up to the Sub you can see the 13s in the bubbles. And how on the Polar there are several Rolex crowns too.

The last pic is very cool!

Might do good with a little bit of color temp control in photoshop.

Tried that, thought it came out sort of flat. I should probably try with a watch with a bit more color.

Best results if you have a camera that can capture RAW format images, then you will not flatten the image when adjusting the temperature.

Sorry if this is obvious info to you.

I try to avoid it since I would have to carry around an external drive, but you're probably right. I'll see what I can do.
