I allways wanted to make a macro photo of a clock machinery. After purchasing a skeleton design mechanical watch with marvelous machinery inside I had the oportunity. I think this watches are real artwork.Editing
Typical post processing in lightroom, adjust lights and sharpening in the border of the frames using Focus magic plugin.In my camera bag

The skeleton watches are ideal for this kind of photos, they have marvelous and elegant mechanism inside. And get a good macro lens, of course.
