Beautiful Christmas In Prauge
Shot With A Canon 1DMKIV in HD

What a beautiful holiday treat!!! This amazing video was shot with the all-new Canon 1DMKIV Digital SLR by Philip Bloom. It is just amazing how well this camera can capture scenes in the dark with its amazing censor. I can imagine what Ansel Adams could have done with this camera!!! I recommend watching it full screen!!!

Wrist Shot Of The Day
Dalip's Baby Reaching for His Rolex LV

I always think it is really cute when people take photos of their kids with their Rolex and I imagine that is one of the things that makes Rolex special. You don't see people taking wrist shots with their kids while wearing a Timex or Patek–at least I haven't.

Rolex Macro Wrist-Shot Of The Day...



Rolex Macro Wrist-Shot Of The Day
Bisquitlips Mother-Of-Pearl Yacht-Master
[Reference 16623]

Bisquitlips is the funniest avatar name in the online community. Every time I see it, it makes me giggle :-))))) Speaking of Bisquitlips, if you have never seen his avatar up front, you've gotta click here to check it out!!! How beautiful is that Tahitian pink and green backtoned Mother-Of-Pearl dial!?!?!!!!

I also love how on yellow gold Rolex Yacht-Master dials, how Rolex uses gold paint for the writing and minute marks. One of the other details I love on the Yachtmaster is the Maxi-Markers and Fat-Hands. This watch really is some kind of wonderful!!!
