It's Casio time again :) This is the third time I've photographed this particular watch from Casio's Vintage line for an MM theme. I couldn't shoot the bracelet this time because I'd already done so before, but I always wanted to get extra close to the shiny logo on the watch's face, and now, with the Laowa lens, this was easier (well, sort of) than ever before. The final image is a single shot processed in DXO PL6, Color Efex, and Luminar Neo.
The lettering (0,65 cm / 0,25 inches wide) was printed, or rather embossed, with a silvery, super shiny "ink" so it almost looks like liquid metal (mercury comes to mind). I've always been fascinated by what happens to lettering when photographed with a very shallow depth of field, so this lent itself as one possible choice for our "Bokeh" theme. I also photographed the "Knot of Fate" pendant and necklace/chain (the bokeh classic) which also was part of last week's theme, and an "S-Biner" carabiner hook that had fallen out of my camera's accessory pouch when I changed my cam's battery (speaking about photographing random things for a theme), so, in the end, it was a little difficult to choose – which is why I simply delegated the choice ;)
HMM, Everyone!
Here's me, and my nikon. (my aim was an in focus portrait, but this happened and I quite liked it)
I've had my camera a year nearly now, it's been a life changing experience for me so far..
Happy New year to all 😊 here's to another year of photography!
and has been getting lower ever since :-)

Had fun with this one....scrunched up kitchen foil reflected in a black granite chopping board. I never expected this result.
I've added this to the group Your Best Shot 2016 as it was the first planned shot with my very first DSLR.
