Anybody else like to take photos of your watch with flowers?
I've taken a few over the years . Here's the latest with our little Cactus that has just produced two beautiful blooms.

That looks really nice actually. I think I've taken a few with plants. Let me check

I like your roman DJ, and that’s great backdrop - Beautiful flowers! You must reside somewhere warm. Enjoy, and thanks for sharing!

Now this is perfection, it blends right in.

Thanks Guys. One more and then lets see some more of yours.

Beautiful.

Boaters · 8 November 2019, 08:16 PM

Great pics

Rock · 13 November 2019, 11:27 AM

Another Cactus in bloom. These only bloom for a day - so you have to catch them when they do. Hard to get good exposure with a cell phone on a shiny item like a watch.

ltmgeller · 13 November 2019, 11:40 AM

Looking good

Good one, Jesus! Lets see some Texas flowers with your watch.
(I reckon it's a bit of a challenge photographing a watch with flowers in the garden as it involves manipulating the phone with one hand whilst trying to twist the watch-wrist to avoid flare off the face) The light is very intense here in Queensland, and probably in Texas also.

Andad · 13 November 2019, 06:41 PM

South Oz flowers.

Heya mate, hahaha I thought I was the only one who likes em flowers.

I hope you're not affected by the fire too much!

It's just all about health, happiness & family. The rest are just necessary inconvenience we have to deal with.

Excellent thread.

I'll have to wait till tomorrow to get some flowery, Rolex pictures.

Rock · 16 November 2019, 03:27 PM

Thanks Grady. Go for it. I love to see a little bit of flora from parts I will never see with my own eyes.
Good one Ken, now lets get a close-up of your striking 'Coke' with the beautiful New Mexico flowers in the background.
Lee - show us your nuts, then!
Hi Jesse, yes, I like the contrast of metal with the natural colours. Thanks for asking about the fires - we had them pretty close a few months ago but this time they are closer to the coast and it is only the smoke that is drifting over us here in Capricornia.

yoniman · 16 November 2019, 05:31 PM

Smoke and flora from my open charcoal grill.
BONZA nice Ozzie red wine.
Take care, Rock.

Old photo' from April 2018.

Nice pix Rock!

Rock · 16 November 2019, 09:10 PM

That's quite a striking photo, Lt., the GMT is in nice sharp focus and the background really sets it off. In your neck of the woods there would be no shortage of flowers, I imagine.
