: I got together with the Moose brothers this weekend and had a
: "photo summit" of sorts. OK, it was really an excuse

: fair amount of photography . . . .

: Here are a few examples of some of the interesting watch photos . .

Hey Sam, how about a few pics of the participants.............Had a great time, Jan and Sam are the ultimate hosts, and Sam knows his way around a Nikon too.

Hey folks, Talk about a fun time! If any of you enjoy watches, and I know you do, invest in a good DSLR. Doesn't matter the brand, but invest your time
and energy in getting to know the camera and its capabilities. Tell ya what, I'm shooting a Nikon D70, same as Sam, it's only 6.2 MP. Do a little reasearch
on the lenses that are availible, and you would be amazed at at the photos these cameras will produce. And, if you'll do some e bay shopping, you can get
into a nice, used DSLR for less than new point and shoot costs. Spend the time, do the reasearch, and you'll come out the better photog, and a better
watch collector. Well, I don't know about a better collector, but you'll be able to showcase your collection in whole different light(a play on aperature)
Just do it, it's a lotta fun..........hope you enjoy the pics...............David
