 I learned a lot with this one. Time got away before I got it right. This will have to do.

Time is one of my favorite songs. I could think of nothing for Blue and this song popped in my head at 6:30 Tuesday night. Was feeling the pressure until I remembered my son had a watch with a blue face. Thanks Roger and Dave for the inspiration!

Honestly, harder than I thought. With metal, even controlling the light, you really gotta watch for reflections. Not quite what I wanted but too late to try some more... Oh - I know the second hand is moving. I wanted it that way. And, I thought it appropriate, when discussing time, to use a Relic... :)

It seems like I'm looking at an advertising in a magazine. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? It's a good photo, thus I'll give a good score, but bad in terms of originality.

Good shot. Only complaint is that it is cropped a little tight.
