Experimenting With Different Backgrounds For Watch Photography>>>>>>>>

[jholbrook]

Hi John

I don't know, why the enthusiasts keep so quiet. But I really like this silver background for this watch. It' a great photo, congratulations. The other two backgrounds shown on your webpage are not too impressive to me. For this pepsi, I would rather check with different textures of the silver plate. But I think you are quite at the optimum already. For my taste, the brushed steel plate similar to the brushed appearance of the wristband is just great. You do all your photos with watches showing time at 9:11?

Thanks for the comments - yes, I typically shoot Rolex watches at around 9:10. The traditional 10:10 hand position tends to obscure the Rolex logo a bit with the Mercedes hand.
