Hope this is good for a 6+. I know it's kinda out of the box so I hope I don't get nail here. As this one is going to count for round 4 of BTAST. But you gota admit there is allot of math required to read and tell time. Its grade school math but it's still math.

Basic adjustments in lightroom a little gaussian blur in CS3, dodge the background, add boarder and resize.

Nice contrast and detail showing. Not sure how much this really conveys the theme of mathematics, but I see a lot of shots like this, so I assume it's my own interpretation that is too rigid. I won't ding my vote any.

Well photographed. More of the background pattern should be visible; the area in the upper right is somewhat distracting without it.

Not a bad product shot, but "watch" doesn't mean "math" to me.

Doesn't really say 'mathematics' to me, but I really like the shallow depth of field. The details, sharpness and contrast are also very good. The motion blur of the second hand is an interesting addition. Pretty good over all.
