Not bad at all. Recently I've become more interested in buying some "available light" (Kyle Cassidy states emphatically that flash _is_ available light ... he's on the LUG). Lights and some backgrounds ... maybe moving from informal to formal portraits, or at least adding the possibility. The top gun looks like it would be better presented with some additional lighting, otherwise it really looks good and for a web site. > These are out of my collection, I > will be using some from his collection for the final shot. I had an uncle who collected these. He worked for Remington (is that their name? ... ammunition factory) in southern Illinois. He's dying now from all the poisons was in contact with all those years. He used to let me shoot it. I was a good shot with modern guns, but with that thing I was lucky to hit the broadside of the shed across the road. Never learned the trick.
