Try catching the light really early in the morning; or capture your watch outdoors on an overcast day.The key to taking good watch photos under natural light is getting the light to spread evenly on to your watch. If there is some shadow, you can use a reflector to bounce some light on dark parts of the watch. An easy DIY fix is to use a vehicle\u2019s aluminum shade or some aluminum foil as a second light source.<\/p>\n<p>Also, take care to avoid any reflections of you and your camera when staging the photo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlockInner\">\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerContent\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImageBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImageContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImageContent\" valign=\"top\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/watches\/rolex\/yachtmaster\/platinum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/watches\/yachtmaster-platinum?mc_cid%3D3130bab2fc%26mc_eid%3D%5BUNIQID%5D&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1561716437451000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFFHhn9AS7QHSpRuU7flqEjnUoxdA\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnImage CToWUd aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ci4.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/uyZVcw792Sfy_P-EisyrUIPHAcRlOLxpvK9BDkolyJFyqFtRbdu6xd0NtrINz-h_PAya6md-jUQ6ePt96ot59oCUXsyWbxc4gIQsqDYvOXUijxkoZGoLYILWwwztH7EZEO8u_yLSvTXYEz8=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/0eb1ce6582\/images\/7e292a6b-df92-4f95-9cd4-ee1dc3c75689.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Yacht-Master Steel Platinum Watches, Rolex Yacht-Master II White Gold Platinum Watch\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" align=\"center\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\">Artificial light can help you achieve dramatic looks. |\u00a0<em>pictured: Rolex Yacht-Master Steel Platinum Watches, Rolex Yacht-Master II White Gold Platinum Watch<\/em><\/h6>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerBlockInner\">\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnDividerContent\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"m_-6190652977516282984mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<div>\n<p><strong>Artificial lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>This is the way to go if you want a bit more control on using light.
