 This is my first submission to DPC. Guess everybody will let me know if they like it. "Only Time Will Tell". In a dark bedroom I used a small maglite covered with a paper towel to filter the light. Painted the light. After about 20 shots, I felt this one was the best. Cropped and a small adjustment of curves.

NIce idea. I really like your lighting here. The hourglass appears slightly tilted to me, I find it just a bit distracting.

Very nice lighting colour and cropping. A classic mechanical thing.
