I'm pretty sure my daughter took this one. Out of focus but really close up. Anyone have a macro-lens?

I used to have a bellows. It was super cool. That was like 3 cameras ago, though. Need to get another one. You can get legit 1:1, and I used to take rippin' photos of moss. Now, though, you can do shit like this with your phone - It's kinda cool. You keep picking these challenges where it's like "I took something vaguely applicable like yesterday."
I like it. Also, there's a really simple way to foreshadow what's coming next regarding the theme. Aside: got your Christmas card, that was nice --thanks. Though via pubski I felt well acquainted with each topic, milestone and challenge. -which is awesome. 2016 is gonna rawk!
Can you tell us what that is? The closest I can find is a William Stratford pocket watch.
Saw it at an exhibit at the Met in New York. I don't have more information about it, but looking at this article on the exhibit it seems to have a Delander movement and date around 1715-19.
Interesting, thanks! If I could have imagined that it was a pink diamond bearing (instead of the usual ruby), I might have come up with better search terms. The timepiece gets a few pages, starting on p. 142 in European Clocks and Watches in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which reveals that the case was manufactured by the company that would become Vacheron Constantin, the favorite of Anthrax guitarist Dan Spitz.
