Next Monday evening at the Horological Society of New York, acclaimed watch photographer Atom Moore will lecture on Watch Portraiture: Taking a Closer Look With Macro Photography. No doubt you have seen his work before; perhaps on Instagram, and even on HODINKEE from time to time. The lecture is free, open to the public and will be held at HSNY's new meeting venue, the General Society Library in Midtown Manhattan.
Photography is a very important part of keeping people engaged with horology. Since gaining access to a wide variety of watches through the community at RedBar Crew, Atom Moore has focused his lens ever closer into the intricate details of these fascinating timepieces. Taking portraits of watches has become his passion. The tiny mechanical details are often hard to see or understand for those who are not watchmakers or experts in the field. To help shine a light on the complex details in mechanical watches, Atom will share some insight into his passion and methods for creating watch portraits. In presenting watches as portraits, he hopes to engage not just existing watch enthusiasts, but the general public as well.
