I have a shotgun passed down in my family identical to the one you photographed. The engraving is identical, but a piece is missing. Can you give me any information on the age of the gun and the value if you know it? (Wonderful photo by the way!)
My dad's shotgun - his dad's before that - couldn't say when the last time it was fired (not in my lifetime of 48 years) - now I have no idea where the firing pins are
this I like. terriffic lighting, great colors, great composition. the only thing I would try to fix is the glare off the stock. other than that, excellent photo!
Good Photo. Good composition and execution of the black background. Focus is good. I like the subject. Good display of the rust and teh other textures. 8 Ruthann
Like the close up, showing the scratches on the wood and metal and the rustiness. Also prefer shots which close up and make an abstract of the picture rather than show the whole item, well, depends what the subject matter is, but for things like this. Nice.
phenomenal composition... i can't say much about this photo.. the lighting is great... maybe a touch too bright in the lower right, but it's not harmful at all. This is a beauty... great shot :) = 10 - jmsetzler
This is a really good picture, liked it overall… The glare on the engraved plate detracts for the quality, perhaps a change of lighting would have made this a winner (8)
Well, this is a difficult shot to critique because I like it. But by changing the angle of the lighting to cut back on some of the glare off the stock lock, you might just loose some of the contrast that also gives this it's character.....Hmmmm. I'd love to see some of the out takes of this shot, and the many combinations you went through to settle in to this.
I really like this photo, it is IMO very good. The composition is excellent and the angle of lighting is quite complementary. My only (very minor) nitpick is that the lighting is too harsh, thus there are some reflections and a small burned out spot.
I love this photo! Great use of lighting and filling the frame with a part of the rifle that is immediately identifiable. Looks great against the black background. Excellent work!
Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject. Composition - quite good Technical Aspects - very good Meets Challenge - yes Visual Impact / Originality - high
I think you needed more light. Indirect would have been best to keep from blowing out the detail on the flat surfaces. In trying to correct this it looks like you overprocessed and caused some deterioration in the image. In my opinion any way. Autool
