Lazy Photographers

Basically, it's lazy photographers. There are many ways to get good photos of guns, but you have to work at it.

There are nifty ways to get the shot with good lighting and no shadows, or to put the shadows where you want. But you have to work at it.

It is much easier now that we have digital cameras. With film, if we didn't have a Polaroid back, we had to guess, bracket, shoot a lot, and wait for the film to be developed.

Hint. Keep modeling clay handy for getting guns to stay where you want.

Okay Jetman, or anyone else who knows, what is the make and model of that revolver? It looks just like one I saw in a movie that I've been trying to identify for years.

 

[jetman]

chenzzo ........... It's a 2-1/2" .357 Colt Python.

 

[chenzzo]

Thanks. I figured it out eventually, by clicking the pic and going to look at the rest of the photo album

(you'll have to forgive the poor quality of the camera and even poorer quality of the cameraman)

Done. But the poor quality cigar is an outrage.

If you use a cigar at least have the courtesy to orient it so I can read the freakin' band.
