Thought of the Salvador Dali clock. I took a photo of our old reliable Seth Thomas, and then distorted it using Roxio Photo Suite. Thin I cut it out and held it against a black backdrop.

This is really wonderful Judy...it is a superb, creative idea...I reckon you need a new DSLR as the Pro1 let you down with detail in this lighting...excellent
I suggest you get rid of all traces of the background arm (I realize that would have been dangerous in advanced editing rules). I am thrilled to hear that you created that distorted clock yourself. That makes this image completely yours.
Great shot. The negative space works well here. This is such a different shot. I just love that clock. I think this one will do well. (But what do I know) -10-
