Default Getting to the good stuff -

in the new outhouse dig. I am down about 3 feet and have had a ton of screw top bottles come out. Now I am in a ashy layer and am starting to find some older bottles. I also found what is left of a old pocket watch...

Default Nice Finds and More to Come, Goldfever

Is the pocket watch gold or goldplated? It's hard to tell from the pic because the background is in sharp focus but the finds are blurry. Do you have a macro setting on your camera, this would bring the foreground into focus.

Cheers,

BDA
