The Rules

1. Photos must be captured with a Nikon and appear in the thread with EXIF info in order to be considered for the challenge. If the forum EXIF viewer does not show for any reason, listing the camera and capture date/time below the photo is acceptable. Listing exposure info, lens & focal length is encouraged so others can learn.

2. Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread.

3. Only one photo entry per member for each week, unless otherwise noted.

4. All regularly active members of Nikonites are allowed to participate, including moderators and administrators.

Voting

During the submission & like periods, please click the Thanks/Like button to vote for your favorite images. You can vote for as many as you want! At the end of the week, you will have the opportunity to vote again for the top 3 photos for this challenge!

There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Photo Challenges, unless specifically noted by the site administrator.

Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited or straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.

My АЧС-1М aircraft clock, from the Союз Советских Социалистических Республик. I found this in a thrift store, many years ago, for just a few dollars. Subsequent research has revealed that this clock, or one very similar, is standard equipment in the Микоян МиГ-29 fighter plane. To get this picture of the insides, I had to break a couple of seals, cognizant that by so doing, I may have diminished whatever value this clock may have had as a collectors' piece.

Found this in a drawer. I don't know why I have it because I never drink anything where the bottle is corked. Ha!

Just under 75 minutes to get images submitted for this week's challenge. After that, we go to the 24-hour like only window.

If you have images from last weekend to submit, get them in quick!

Apparently Australia going to DST over the weekend has left me time challenged, and there is actually ~105 minutes until submissions close. My apologies for any confusion ... and get your submissions in!!! :)

Actually, I think because of the destruction of all of the clocks and watches posted in this thread, some confusion was created and jet lag contributed to the time confusion and....

Anyway there is just under 1 hour and forty-five minutes left for submissions. Then the LIKE period will begin.
