Nicely done pictures!! Thank you for sharing them with us.

What make/model camera are you driving? What post-production software do you use? Photoshop?
 
Very nice! Looks like the one ronybear had for sale. You barely beat me to it if it is!
 
Great pix.:thumbup:

That's an awesome looking blade, congrats.:cool:

Very nice lighting and composition. Some of the best pics I have seen on these forums.
 
Thanks guys:)

This was the knife "ronybear" had for sale!
Scales are Stabalized Wood G-Rex Style with Ivory Micarta handles & Mosaic Pins

My camera: Olympus E3 + Zuiko 50mm/f2 + available light...

I use Lightroom for little corrections

Do you use Olympus as a throw over from pre-digital bodies or was that a new system selection? Their glass is up there with the best but the 2/3s system seems a touch behind in maximum image quality as they are putting the same numbers of pixels on a smaller sensor (at least of my last research a few years ago). If starting new I might have gone that way, at least more recently, as I believe there are more aftermarket lens choices and Sony/Minolta has compatible equipment also.

Was it the OM1 or the OM10 that started the rare but very cool feature of allowing one to choice upto 10 points in the scene to have the camera select the best exposure?

In the pre-digital era I used to work with Nikon (F4s). I had a Fuji Finepix consumer digicam to go along for the last 6 a 7 years. Last year I decided it was time for a dSLR. I did some serious thinking about what I wanted. Then found out that Nikon premium glass has a premium pricetag.

I took another approach and looked on Flickr and Pbase at pics that I liked best (color, sharpness, lighting etc.) It was a "shock" to discover that approx. 75% of the pics I liked best were shot with Oly gear. That was the decider for me. Two friends of mine have a D700 and a D300s and most of the time I think my pics from my E3 are nicer to theirs:o The Zuiko lenses are amazing even the "standard grade" lenses. Also the Oly in-camera JPEG engine is sublime. I never shoot RAW anymore.
High ISO is a weaker point of the Oly system but most of the time I'm under 800 so that's no problem for me.
 
Brother, those are just beautiful pics and I always look forward to seeing your stuff. It's all in the detail!!!
 
wow, the knife is hot but those pictures are just sick, you don't do that for a living do you? what kind of camera/lens do you have?
