This Hamilton Watch close up is comprised of twenty six focus stacked images. The details from the anodized gold surrounding the jewels to the brushed steal finish and brassy gears is amazing to me.
Learning lighting with strobes (flashes). Here, I used two YongNuo Speedlite YN560 IV flashes, one with a ROGUEGRID2 16 deg honeycomb from the left, another one from the right bounced off a black cardboard at a 45 degree angle. The watch lay on a mirror. The subject is my old Hamilton wristwatch, which to naked eye looks smooth and near perfect -- not so in a close-up photo. Scratches and dents, imperfections all around. I retouched a whole bunch of them in post already, but as this is only an exercise I wasn't looking for perfection.
I should open up the shadows from the back of the photo more, to bring out the shape better. Light is complicated. It is what defines a photograph. There's much to learn.

Last month, I received an email from Hamilton today announcing his retirement. He inquired if I still have the photo I took of him a couple of years ago so he can use it for his signature board. So I dug this up and thought I might share it here. It's really a test shot. At that time I just got my Canon 580ex ii flash and wanted to practice on bouncing the light.

A unique natural area surrounds this pool, collapsed grotto and canyon, formed by thousands of years of water erosion. Lush plant communities, a variety of wildlife species and natural shelter attracted the area's first inhabitants. Cultural remains date back over 8,000 years.
Prior to the 1800s, Tonkawa and Lipan Apaches lived in the area. In the mid 1860s, Morgan C. Hamilton owned the property now known as Hamilton Pool Preserve. His brother, Andrew Jake Hamilton (the 10th governor of Texas), evidently visited this beautiful grotto while he was governor. In the 1880s, the Reimers, an immigrant family from Germany, bought the property to raise sheep and cattle. Legend has it that their eight-year-old son discovered the collapsed grotto.
Although ranchers might have considered the grotto a safety hazard for their livestock, the Reimers soon realized its value as a recreational area and opened the property for public use. Around the turn of the century, only a handful of people had the transportation to come out and enjoy the cool, serene surroundings. By the 1960s, and on into the 1980s, Hamilton Pool's popularity had soared, as visitors packed the legendary swimming hole. The land suffered from sheer numbers and few restrictions.
In addition to impact from the visiting public, cattle, sheep and goats grazed the delicate ecosystem for several decades, resulting in changes to the native vegetation. In 1980, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department cited Hamilton Pool as the most significant natural area in rural Travis County. In 1985, Travis County purchased 232 acres from the Reimers family and implemented an aggressive land management plan to restore Hamilton Pool. Now, as Hamilton Pool Preserve, the lush fern-canopied cliffs are making a comeback, as are the rolling hills and meadows of the uplands.
Ongoing land management practices at Hamilton Pool Preserve include prescribed burns, prairie restoration, endangered species surveys, biological inventories and water quality monitoring.
One of those overcast days. Coming back from the Niagara region which was sunny and warm decided to stop at the hamilton side of the beach. It was overcast and cool and quite breezy. Glorious sunset.
