 Had fun with this one, never tried this technique before. Background was made of black rug, camera on tripod, used a lamp for lighting with a reflector to diffuse the harsh light. Zoomed from 35mm to about 20mm while the two seconds were passing. Used an RC-1 remote with 2 seconds delay to trigger the camera.

I adjusted the levels in Digital Photo Professional, converted to jpg, burnt bits in the corners and dodged some bits on the white part of the clock. Cropped, Resized and a little USM before saving.

A zoom blur. These are very hard unless you anchor the camera and put a weoght on it. Bumping up for good effort.

this is nice, but the top right corner is distracting. It takes my eye there and I get stuck...

Among the clock photos, I think this is the best. It's great that you've set it at midnight ... I really feel the urgency.

Better than most of the clock shots but still not great.

Lot's of people used pictures of clocks and watches in this challenge, but this is one of the best I've seen.
