Talking about YM in the other thread made you feeling like to take new pics

Noob YM is one of the most difficult watch to take in picture.

Compliments, as usual

You're right, it's a challenging watch to photograph. It's rather tough to bring up both polished and brushed areas and avoid all noise/reflections. I used lots of light from different angles.

Thanks man, glad you liked it.

Nice pic By-Tor! I'd have to agree the YM is a tough one to photograpgh. Between the polished and brushed SS case, the flat bezel, and the sparkle in the dial it looks like it would be hard to get just the right lighting.

[By-Tor]

Thanks TA.

If you're interested, Here are all the photos I've taken of the YM. Yeah, it takes a bit of planning to get the lighting correct.

[Pugwash]

Great pic. I've not tried photographing one of these. I suspect I'll not manage with my lazy lighting.

[By-Tor]

Thanks Pugs.

What's wrong with your lighting? Are you sure it's not the box that causes the problems?

I tried a commercial lightbox but in the end nothing beats my transparent white flower pot.
