Hello all,
When ranging the ramekins (that served as a recipient for a delicious 'crumble' made by my better half) this evening, I noticed how hard it was to stack them correctly. That was when I got this crazy idea that I just had to try!
So, here is my immitation of the tower of Pisa with of course my beloved Pisa Portuguese Perpetual Calender :-)
Picture details: Canon EF-S 60 mm macro lens; ISO 400 with enhanced detailling; F 2/8; 1/20th second shutter speed.

Cool, interesting and funny pic Clemens. His ardoise cousin says hi...
I suspect my next IWC will be a double-moon portuguese perpetual as well with a strong blue accent ... You guys have me really going with the blues (Pisa 5441, laureus VC Ing, 500107 ...) and the perpetual (5021-21, your Pisa PPC)...

Omar Khayyám (Persia XI-XII Century) offered that Time should not only be measured in length but also in width due to the intrinsic difference between a minute or other depending on what is happening to the beholder... I wonder how a watch would look like...

whichwatch Wrote:Great shot, Clemens. The only change I would suggest is to place the watch on the other side, so if the tower falls......
That would certainly be less artistic, but a lot more safe! :-)
Hi Dick,
I completely agree with you but I took extreme care with the tower. The watch shows it's almost midnight so everybody else was sleeping, further reducing the risk of a Pisa tower collapse :-)

Great shot Clemens, not only well framed and posed but you really seem to have nailed the lighting perfectly as well - having such a great subject only makes the job easier but shouldn't detract from your photographic skills in any way :)

Our ramekins are blue so I guess I should send them to Alan.
Best regards,

Great Pisa, hope to see it life one time soon.

Thanks Tonny. I hope to arrange a small GTG late September or October. Details will follow in a few weeks!
Kind regards,
