SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
23 MARCH 2019
CLOSE-UP IN COLOUR
SUBJECT IS YOUR CHOICE BUT GET UP CLOSE AND IN FOCUS

I have quite a few watches and I thought a watch would be a suitable subject for this week's challenge. My first attempts trying four different watches were disappointing. However, when I tried this watch I seemed to have a little bit more success :-)

And, for 'Sight and Sound' I have chosen a slightly obscure 'Time' link which is
"33, 45, 78 (Record Time)" by Kathy Mattea. Kathy is one of my all-time favourite singers. Kathy was born in South Charleston, West Virginia and has visited the UK on a number of occasions. We were lucky enough to see Kathy a couple of times in the 90's and about 10 years ago Kathy played at The Stables, Wavendon, Milton Keynes. The Stables is only about 20 miles away. Then just recently, on 29 January 2019, Kathy came back to play at The Stables.
A magical evening. Thank you, Kathy :-)

That's a beautiful focus on a very nice and colourful watch, Roger.

The link didn't work for me but I found this one that did (only one!) A good song. I like the fiddle too.

The EXIF says that this was taken on 3/22, but the watch says the date is the 19th. It clearly has a mind of its own. But it makes for a lovely photograph.
