One of my old watches. I did this in the dark on a 15 second exposure. The longest my little camera will allow.
Getting older with each passing second. "Eternity" is passing, and I feel that the image captures that with the movement(s) of the second hand.
I hope the viewers get it. :)

Unfortunately, the second hand movement is not vividly displayed, and that should have been the focal point. This way I have to search for it and force the relationship to the challenge. It is there, but it is not the main point of the photo.

Nice original idea and a cool effect.

I like the idea, but I think it would be better if you'd used a bigger clock, even though I like the colors on this one.

I see what you tried to do.
I once tried to capture the movement of black clock hands with white background. Pretty stupid hey:)
It was a 20 sec exposure but i still got same thing as i would if i just took a snap shot of that clock.

I liked the picture and the concept. I would have preferred to see a watch face with mickey mouse on it.

5 - Good idea and potential. Criticism; difficult as am no expert in shutter speed, but seems to me the focal point is 'off', not sure. Perhaps a different clock face, different crop, angle, may have helped this in my opinion.
