Description Playing with my new EF 100mm USM Macro lens.

This is a Hamilton model 992 21 jewel railroad watch.
It was made in 1909 which makes it 101 years old!
It was given to me as a wedding present from my wife on the day of our wedding rehearsal a little over 13 years ago.

Photo setup info:

The watch is sitting on a piece of printer paper. To the left is a Canon 430 EXII Speedlight shooting through a home made softbox. To the right is a Yongnuo YN460-II Speedlight shooting up to bounce off another piece of printer paper I'm holding above the watch.

If you post the drawing I'd really appreciate it if you linked back to here.
