Wow. Its amazing the depth of the dial you get with these pics. The blur of the second hand looks cool too. What kind of camera are you using again?

EOS 20D :-!

I probably stared at your fake CA article for a good hour before I got mine on a trade last week!

Ah yes, the 20D. Now I remember. My friend has one. Do you use a macro lens for your pics? I mostly use the 17-85 lens for mine on my 350D, but can't quite justify getting a macro lens just to take watch pics.

Glad my post could be of some value. Like I mentioned over on TZ, every time I see your pics, it makes me miss mine. Yours looks quite real :-!

Well... John... truth is that I don't know much about photography.
I use the stock lens with a 30 dollars Qantanaray screw on close up filter.

For now I still shoot in Auto mode, and hopefully one day I will learn how to use the manual mode.
I have no idea how to use the manual mode. My friend set it for me once and everytime I messed with it I ended up with horrible pics lol.

The 30 seconds exposure were done with the dial at Aperture Priority.

Well, all I can say is that we're all going to be in trouble when you finally get the thing figured out, because the pictures you are taking in your "clueless" state are amazing enough! :-!
