I was looking for a contrasting element for this photograph of a Chopard watch. I settled on my Minolta SRT-101 from the 1960s. I wanted it be somewhat recognizable in the background, but not to compete with the details of the watch and strap. So, for the first time since I got my T/S macro lens, I used the tilt to shorten depth of field. This was my favorite of the shots.
