This is nicely framed and the red background works because of the red tip of the second hand pointing in the direction of the background. I guess the texture of the background works too since the watch is somewhat weathered and not smooth.
Excellent photo. The title gives the photo a hint of mystery - thought provoking. The quality is great. Effective cropping and composition. Excellent work!! 9 Ruthann
I like the way this is composed. Very good macro shot. Boy that thing is dirty, no wonder it gave up on living. I almost did a macro shot of a very old dead watch too. They make very good subjects.
Like the clocks all stop when someone dies? or was the watch worn in a accident. Very nice The watch is great and the red tip on the second hand is striking, I think the texture of the red is distracting however
Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject. Composition - quite good Technical Aspects - quite good Meets Challenge - I have a problem here. Looks like water stopped it, not age. Visual Impact / Originality - ok
I like the subject and the cropping of this picture. I am grateful that you didn't fall for the B&W cliché for this challenge. I belive the ticker is at 12:12...
This is an interesting perspective of an old watch... I think the off centering of the subject works very well here... I believe that the only improvement that I could suggest for this subject would be a smooth textured background. The background that you have is not bad, but a smooth background would possibly enhance the overall impact of the image by removing the 'texture' constrasts from the non-subject area of the photo... - jmsetzler
I'm a macro fan, and I think the shot itself is well composed, well lit and technically up to the mark. OK, here it comes – but – it looks more dirty than old. I can't fault the picture, but I think it loses a bit in translation of the challenge – (7)
