can you see the face? by summerfield

can you see the face?

of course you can; it's right there. i love photographing this watch pendant. i've never really cared to see if it works or not, when i got it, it was just relegated to being a model. but what's not to love?

the bokeh was accidental. i set the camera's timer to ten seconds, pressed the shutter and turned away to get a drink. i saw the glittery ribbon which fell from the top of the cabinet next to the table (well, my little deep freeze, really) and removed it. i didn't even check the shot, just removed the card and downloaded to my laptop. so it was a surprise to see those delicious bokeh in there.

for the word 'face', you know, as in the face of the watch.
Gorgeous watch. My hubby has several antique pocket watches that belonged to his grandfather, but none of them have a face like this.

Such a lovely watch! And what serendipity to get that wonderful bokeh as a background.

Well that's one happy accident! Love both the face and the bokeh. One of your better creations IMO.

It would be very hard to work out what time it is in the middle of the night! But in the daytime - it would be a delightful challenge!

What a beautiful watch. I have to ask, though, did you add the blue jay and the Eiffel Tower, etc? I’m thinking you must have. Your bokeh is fabulous too!

Great bokeh.

@louannwarren - no, i didn't. it's part of the face's design. hard to tell the time sometimes though, as maggiemae indicated. thanks, law.

A most fascinating time piece! It makes a fabulous photo and I noticed the bokeh immediately. Even better that it was accidental!

A beautiful pocket watch and magical capture of it with the dancing bokeh in the background.

Beautiful watch

I think the bokeh actually makes the shot even more interesting- it's a good thing that ribbon decided to photo bomb your set up!
