Been wondering where you have been. Haven’t seen a post from you for a good while. Hope you get it figured out on the technology. Helpful hint, go to an Apple. You won’t have those problems.
Nice pics.

Still working on the software issue but I'm able to use windows Paint to edit my photos.....even though I dislike the app. and don't have much experience with it.

I think shooting all those blades from overhead with almost no reflections is quite an achievement. ::tu::

Thanks QS.

It wasn't easy at first, all my shots had serious glare in one place or another. Then my brain finally woke up and thought....indirect lighting. I pointed all of my lights at the walls (it's a very small room) and one at the ceiling. It worked pretty well except the pic is darker than I would have liked. I had to adjust the exposure a little in the edit phase. I like to keep my editing to cropping and resizing but this pic needed a little help.

I just made this one my screen saver. It’s my Rigid complete knife set made by Canal Street. I could look at these all day long.

I love seeing these on my screen. I thought I would have picked some others for that job, but this one just gives my brain dopamine every time I look at it.
Just wish I knew how to crop the bottom of that picture off. My editing skills on my IPhone are limited to the brightness, tint and rotation. That’s all I have figured out.
Thanks

Fooling around with a black background versus my usual stump. I adjust a lot of my pictures with the Mac Photos program as most are slightly overexposed raw.

JohnR and Sasquatch, nice collections of bone.

Sweet pic Scott. I can foresee that on a calendar!

Jtx, how about some more pics of that pick’em up truck?!?!

This one has been riding with me for a few days.
