I love my watches and I love photography. That´s why I have to combine them. This is a combination of, I think, 8 different focus points. The lens is the Canon 100 L Macro.

Very nice. I think a circular polarizer would have helped #2.

You are probably right. Actually a CP filter is on the way to my mailbox.

There are some other guys shooting watches in the Still Life forum. Someone there mentioned that a CP filter would cut the glass look. Better than taking the glass out. :)

Good stacks. A circular polariser would help reduce reflections on the glass & also helps to saturate the colour a little.

Why are you stacking these? I find f/18 to be sufficient at about a foot away.

I like the BG but I can see your hand(s) all over the first watch. Set the camera on a timer and step away to avoid that or use a reflector. I do both when I can. It's otherwise not bad, it just needs some PP to stand out more.
