Wonderfully sweet look on those precious and beautiful faces. The photo is wonderful and in the best light. I like the old table/dresser top for background as well and the tonation is super. Very well done.

You did a wonderful job of displaying this and photographing it! I love the background shadowing and color - everything comes together to set the mood for this.

Beautiful picture.
It really seems to tell it's own story.
I love the fact that he carried that picture all those years.

A fantastic photo of this watch and you have done the memory of your grandfather justice in this photo.

I like it very much. Nice composition showing both the old photo and watch face. Nostalgic memories. Classic keepsake.

Perhaps it would be better not to repair it. Just leave it like it is - it keeps the time, you know.
*thinking about it - I must find a clock/watch and keep it still, then see what happens ...*

"Nostalgic" really is the perfect word for this photo. A wonderful story, and gorgeous lighting.
