Effective. The message is there and the photo is well done.

adjusting to get rid of the overall blue tinge would improve this and turning the watch to face the camera would help too. I like the vintage look to the image though. I collect vintage linens so it has natural appeal to me.

nice....combination of textures and a good composition and an interesting story. I think a more interesting title would add to the picture.

This is a bit too dark. (I found you in the watch reflection!) The chain needs alot more light to show it off. Multiple textures well displayed. Good focus and focal range. Nice angle of attack. I'm sure you got at least one comment about the watch not being square with the frame, who cares! I like that part fine. I just realized the stem of this watch is at 3:00, not 12:00, as my pocket watch is.
If this shot weren't so dark, I think I could have gone as high as 9, all other things equal, but as submitted I have to top out at 7 (started as a 6, please feel good!)

Very classy, but I would like to see a little more clarity on the chain. 9 nards656

The blue cast in this photo makes it look as though it was taken either early in the morning or late in the evening. Gives a very nice mood to the photo.
