Of course I'm interested. I might even be able to advise on how to take better knife 'mug shots'.
That style of photography is the basis for capture. Most can't even get that right, so we can include that as well. (I fully understand Chuck's point.)
I got my start in photographing knives with an
informal contest on the
Knife Network (when it was Custom Knife Directory). That approach would serve well, not just for the occasional knife photo contest, but for other non-knife themes. Friendly competition makes us work harder at our task.
Just a thought, and I mentioned this years ago when I was pointing towards a specific photo forum: I think a
Digital Forum would be smart. It's inescapable that computers, websites, cameras, cell phones, software to run them all are all part of our experiences in our
knife lives and
personal lives. BF is a community, and we tend to ask our closer freinds what to do first when encountering a problem or query.
That said,
Photography alone has many aspects and can probably sustain enough interest to be a standalone, but I wouldn't be adverse to have photo specific threads intermingled with website production techniques or computer queries. I find
Gadgets and Gear not completely appropriate in this. But, that's just me.
Staying tuned. Lets discuss. Thanks, Mike. :thumbup:
