Disclaimer first - Please excuse the bad photos (nasty orange background, weird lighting). I shot these in my shoebox of a room that's far from ideal for showing off this piece, but unfortunately taking pictures of this one is going to be a task in itself. Getting the flashes far enough away to shoot a larger piece with even light, shooting at an angle without seeing a wall, and getting creative angles without the convenience of simply laying it on a table are all things I'll work out when it's time to take the final photos. I plan on making a very large couple of backgrounds, and I'll also have to figure out a good way to show scale, possibly with people.

Sad excuses out of the way - Here's the most recent photos of No.7 in progress. I'm very excited to see the full scale piece on the wall. I honestly can't back up enough in my room to enjoy it as I'd like. To get the photos I had to use the wide angle lens. The full shot of this clock is very close to what the final will look like, which is usually an indication that I'm coming down the final stretch. This isn't quite the case though. There's a lot of work left to be done on the inside of the clock, and this needs to be done very thoroughly, because this one begs to be explored from all of the angles.

The effect of the geared portion of this clock is supposed to be very layered, tangled, twisted and contoured. The feel is of course much better when you can see the gears moving, but this shot gives you an idea.
