This is my Great Grandfathers watch. I was looking for something for the bokeh challenge, and there it was. I ended up not entering it because I ended up with another photo that probably fit the Bokeh challenge better. So I figured I would just toss it into the Free Study mix.
The blue in the background is actually the sky in super bright light. The watch was hanging from a tree. I used raw shooter to turn it this color. Amazingly it didn't change the color of the watch at all!

I like the concept of the shot, but the dark patch in the middle is more of a distraction than anything...I think I'd prefer just the limbs and the blue coloring without the shadow. :)
