Nicely framed
Thanks Park,
I remember this beach shot series and it looked like a lovely place to be. I like how the flowing water frames the VC Overseas, which is a great travelling watch.
Probably a coincidence, but I find that it is the first and last shots that I take that work out the best; I virtually don’t need to take the other 20 in between. The first one is the most carefully set up, and the last is the quick snap when I hear the garage door open because my wife has returned home!
Pleased you were able to snap this lovely shot for us.
Andrew
Ticking still life: artistic images
Hi All, We have some inventive and technically great photographers with us on PuristS. I would love to see some of your more posed or artistic shots. [You can Photoshop to your hearts content.] This can be another chapter in the PuristS coffee table book ...
Gulf of Mexico
AndrewD, I'm not among the many talented photographers here, but I got lucky with this shot, especially since my wife was tugging at me to keep walking on the beach and not embarass her. Park...
This Panerai PAM127 has survived the test of time
Just an old pic of mine which looks pretty cool IMO. Wish I had adjusted the hands in the proper position. Cheers, Anthony...
Andrew, i know its the 3rd time i've posted it, but i think this pic is rather good
Nicolas even described it as 'sublime'. i call it a lucky shot i admit to a bit of photoshopping, like turning it too B&W best Graham...
I did open this with trepidation, Graham …
… half expecting a foot, or another part of your anatomy, but you are correct, this is a very nice image and I approve of your B&W rendition. Out of interest, what were the lighting conditions to capture the ice like this? Wouldn’t it be nice if we could ...
Panerai wallpaper
Thanks Anthony, very nice. If the hands were in the 10:10 position, you may not have got the light just right to make them ‘pop’ out as they do. I would be interested to see what the un-Photoshopped version of this image looked like. Do you have it handy?...
MY PERSONAL FAV'S ....
HI ANDREW ... my personal favorites; i'm not really good at this stuff but there are some pictures i took which i'm proud off Due to a severe shortage of watches you'll mostly find my Longines in the pics ... First one is a very nice close up of the dial ...
Inspired by the great Roger Corman...
...who produced some of my favorite genre films, including the always enjoyable PIRANHA! Tagline: "They're here...Hungry for flesh! Who can stop them?" I love to watch this movie on DVD when I vacuum my apartment for some reason. Aquatic terror brings out...
Terrific pics, Daos.
I will no more see my Longines Diver the same way, now... Best, Nicolas
Thanks, Nicolas!
You should try to see the actual movie that inspired my photo shoot. It was originally released in 1978, partially to capitalize on the success of Jaws, I think. The movie is about a large school of piranha that escape into a lake resort. The results are....
i remember seeing the pic...
i remember seeing the pic as well as friday 13th(part 1) and other gruesome films at the Army run cinema when i was a young soldier between 1980-1982. did it also have a swimming pool with the little critters in or was that another film of equally gruesom...

Tasty
Thanks Daos, I enjoyed these. So many bad puns come to mind but I will restrain myself. While I might pretend to be more highbrow, I have a soft spot for B grade movies as well; bring on the zombies! What do you do when you iron? A
Nice pic AndrewD....please show us more of your pics :-)
