My change jar overflowing means I need to roll up the pennies, nickels, and dimes and head to the bank. I thought they made an interesting backdrop for a corny play on words ... my wife is still teasing me about the corniness.

I wanted to have a little more separation between the watch and the coins, but widening the aperture to achieve this limited the focus on the watch face. I'm thinking something along the lines of a small platform to place the watch on may have helped ... something to try later, I guess.

With a moving second hand, do you guys have any other suggestions on how to achieve this?

Nice photo, pretty color contrast and good idea behind the scene.

Thanks all!
I'll keep playing around to see what I can come up with to accentuate the focal separation.
