Oh yeah, my mouth’s watering just looking at what you got on the grill there, Zach ::drool:: (and those cheeseburgers look pretty tasty as well) :lol:


I took these Case knives pics on my jaunt out and around Napo’opo’o village and Kealakekua Bay this morning:

Nice one, Fingers.....the grain lines in the table remind me of the "vanishing horizon" perspective drawings I learned how to do in art class.


Speaking of perspective.....I took these two shots of the same knife in the same location seconds apart. I just made a few minor adjustments in the position of the knife and my position with the camera. I like one better than the other because I feel the lighting makes it look more dramatic. Which one do y'all like best? ::hmm::

Q all of the photos are very nice.
I posted these two on The mail call thread. I thought they were some of the best knife pictures I have taken yet. Now that I look at the the sunfish pictures there is a difference not as dramatic.
Enjoy

I posted the fiery one in the edc thread. Posting both here though so photography aficionados can appreciate the warmth that fire adds to a picture. No filters here.

Tasteful photos of both knives, ThatWeirdKnifeGuy .

Nice photo of the Silver Streak, Fingers.

Steve I especially like the Sunfish photos.

Very nice shots. I prefer the second photo with the more vivid colors on the tree, blade, and handle. I have one of those Case Swaybacks. It is a really nice knife, but that design does not work for me: I keep nipping the web of my thumb when I close it.

Here are a couple of photos where I tried to capture an unusual grain in a wood handle. This is a knife that Reverand just rehandled for me.

Thanks Q. I wish I could take credit for the disappearing perspective but that was accidental as I didn’t even notice it until you pointed it out. As far as your photo is concerned the blade is more distinctive in the 2nd photo but I like the handle in the first. How’s that for being a politician

My iPhone camera had a hard time with the setting of this photo due to the bright sunlit background outside the window behind the knife. I think there's a setting for situations like this that transfers more light onto the foreground subject, but I was in the doctor's office waiting room and couldn't play around with it as much as I normally would. I ended up turning on the flash just to get the knife to show up and not be a dark shadowy knife-shaped splotch on a windowsill. :lol:

Nice wood grain on your Winchester Wharncliffe Whittler, Mel. I have grown quite fond of wood handles, especially when the wood is highly figured and has nice grain 8) ::tu::

Blue Scroll Case Stag Mini Trapper shot in my favorite photo taking spot in Kona. Even though the cruise ship and the church steeple in the distant background are not in focus, it's still clear what they are.
