New Pics / Old Parker

BamaFatman · Post by **BamaFatman** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 4:03 pm

On the advice of Forensic Jim I took some pictures of my old parker lockback using a black background. I think they turned out pretty good.
First is a picture of this knife on my trusty table with no background.

Jody; What's the saying? "Once you go Black, You never go back"

Nice knife!

Well Fatman it looks like you are out of the closet now. ...

I see you have come a long way in a shot time.

The move to your new place is really paying off for you.

Keep up the good attitude. Grate photos and knives.

Jim thanks for helping others as you have all your life.

GEE you guys are grate here. I am very happy for you all...

Fatman, what kind of camera are you using your pictures look real good. I have a Sony DSC-H5 7.2 Mega Pix// Works great but to many buttons. If I could figure out the buttons maybe I could get some better photos???

Thanks for all the kind replies guys.

That a good looking Parker you got there Lenny.

Well Lenny I use my trusty HP Photosmart M415. 5.2 Megapixel with 3X optical zoom. If you can find it on your camera I use the Marco setting and I use a lamp sitting up about a foot higher than the table I put my knives on. I also keep that lamp about 3 or 4 feet back away from the table. No overhead light and no flash.

Hope this helps.
But your picture of that Parker looks good.
