Andrew, I don't know how well it would have looked with the reflection on the face of the watch, but I really like it the way it turned out this way. The round knob is the only colored part of the picture, so it draws the eye to the reflection instantly. Great composition!

Thanks Josè. I was trying to get the reflection in the face of the watch first but gave up after about 40 attempts and noticing a good reflection on the band. Then it took me about 20 more shots to get the right band shot and still not perfect but close enough to what I was looking for. - andrew

Got inspired by your picture and I just waked up from a very good siesta. :)
Nice macro shot. You have a good eye to see those palms reflected in your watch.

Thanks for the comment Paul. Unfortunately the heat here doesn´t allow for good siestas some days! - andrew

Got to love those palms. This is a very good interpretation of the theme. Time to lie down......:>)
