The insert image button wasn't working, sorry for the links.

Oooh I'm glad you fixed the links, I really like the first. The warmth of the picture just resonates.
I like the 2nd as well, but feel that it could be a little less centered?

 

[CalebPhotographer]

Good idea for the second picture... I was trying to do something to make it look cool, but what I tried didn't seem to work that well. (I messed with the gears so that the hands would move around the numbers at an accelerated pace, and set my camera to a slow shutter speed)

I'll give it a try off center. =)

One bump before bed. =)

I like the first, quite pro, the second needs either better focusing or greater DoF & exposure, still lifes should be pin sharp. H

 

[CalebPhotographer]

Yeah, I run into problems with the DOF all the time.. I can't exactly control it easily, though, as I use a point-and-shoot.
