Thanks guys, Chuck, my ole bottle o' red buddy, and Dennis, I really appreciate the kind words about Jerry's work.
The pics I take currently with a fuji finepix 700, an inexpensive, but good cam. On most of these pics, I am using flourescents stood on end on each side with a black cloth behind. The Rifle is muzzle down on a steel rod in the muzzle, stuck in a block of wood, I have different rods for different calibres, and the block and rods were made by Fisher!
I photograph quite a few guns for Fisher, trevallion clients and Helgeland amongst others.
Sometimes I send out my own work to others to photo, as a third party can have a different view. I recently had some great pics done by Steve Hughes.
here is another pic of the 300 mag
Barry,
Proof that it ain't the stick, but who's swingin' it. Amazing pics can be made from the inexpensive equipment available today. Lighting, composition, technique, and subject matter, was, is and always will be what photography is all about.
