Re: “Spirit of the Time” - competition comments thread.
Can we title our submissions? Or add some kind of description to give context to the image?

I don’t see why not, Andrew. As long as you include the correct model code and preferably don’t make the description too long!

Re: “Spirit of the Time” - competition comments thread.
I’m struggling to realize my vision for The photo for my C65 Trident Vintage, as it requires a tux and an Aston Martin DB4, neither of which I have...
I’ll work on it.

Ian-909, tell me about that Strat!
Great pics, by the way.

Thanks very much JK. It’s an early 70s neck fitted to an AVRI 70s body with limited edition CS 69 pickups, all Fender. I thought it somewhat matched the spirit of my C65 Trident Diver.

REMINDER:
From the instructions...
Early codes are quite simple (e.g. C5 Malvern SWK)
Later ones are more complex (e.g. C65-41H3H1-S0BB0-B0) but can be found by looking up your watch on the Archive.
Please edit your entries if you need to. Thank you.

Re: “Spirit of the Time” - competition comments thread.
Thanks Dave, I keep having second thoughts as to what to enter - as you know I post a fair few on CWE
Some amazing photos so far, I'm just happy to be in such good company!

This was a fun challenge. Macro is hard, storytelling isn't much easier either.
