Backlighting through a tulip. small alu-foil reflectors to get some definition on the front of the watch. The lighting on the clockwork all comes from front glas reflecting the backlighting.

My favorite image for this challenge. Nice composition, color, sharpness, and interesting intricacy. Maybe a touch more front light would help. Love it, and hope it takes a ribbon.
This is a very nice picture. I think it would be improved if the light at the bottom center were not as bright (color is burned out) and personally I would have preferred a small amount of light on the front lower part of the clock so the bottom of the clock looked a little more like the top with more detail (but still with a little change in the light from top to bottom). I think this is really nice.
