A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

How to take images of watches (alien.top)

I am trying to take images of some watches and I am trying to do it so that I don't have the reflection of the glass. The images are coming out terrible and I don't know what to do to get them to look like the link below.

The link is a series of images where the glass looks like its not even there.

Before he made some very pretty watches, he was a photographer. One of Ming thein’s early articles involves a three piece article about his approach on how he photographed watches.
