Del 4,891 Posted March 10, 2012 Thanks guys! @ sconey - very strange about the exif data. It would appear that Flickr is blocking it (I can't view it either) - the data is there in the original files that I uploaded. :dunno: @ jeff - no yawn? Finally.

Luthier 1 Posted March 10, 2012 Great watch (love the mov't and gold hands!!!), and great pics, mate!!! One technical question - how long you exposed the watch to the light, and what bulb you used? Here's mine (regular rep. lume) with 1/8 sec. exposure after 30 seconds under 75W bulb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichyRichRolex 0 Posted March 10, 2012 Del you peaked my interest? Where did you buy? How much if you don't mind sharing, Did you have modded, if so what mods? Is that strap and buckle GEN? Absolutley a stunner! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,891 Posted March 10, 2012 Thanks Luth and frag! @ Luth - I charged the lume for about 10-15 seconds with my LED Lenser P7 torch just before taking the photo. I used a high F-stop so that's why I had the long exposure. It gave an amusing effect with the minute hand blurring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would appear that Flickr is blocking it (I can't view it either) - the data is there in the original files that I uploaded. :dunno: ahhhh, it does that with my flickr account, if you click on taken today with (insert camera model) all is revealed, only to you though methinks... Del you peaked my interest? Where did you buy? How much if you don't mind sharing, Did you have modded, if so what mods? Is that strap and buckle GEN?

Distinct 0 Posted March 10, 2012 Possibly some of the best photos I've seen on this forum. Great pictures. How are focusing so close? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,891 Posted March 10, 2012 Cheers guys! @ sconey - I do very little to them on the PC. All I do is crop them if required, adjust the white balance level, reduce the file size for quicker uploading, sharpen the pic a little if required, add a border and the text and hey presto! Seriously, that's it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
