Folks, I have had the pleasure of working with a number of great BF members for knives which will be displayed in Dr. David Darom's upcoming book '100 Custom Knives in the Making'.
For the book's needs and Dr. Darom, I am able to send him LARGE and clear images of each knife, which is shown in various stages of completion, until finished. Then he hits you with a POW! image of the knife to show it off.
Here is one of them from our own Ron Duncan, JS, and his daughter Lacey's well-made sheath:
I shoot the knives on a grayish neutral background for David's needs, as he adds a background color unique to each maker. That said, I also have been taking shots of the work myself with my own format, so I can send it off to publications for the guys.
Here's another good sample:
I love Ron's 'look' and this is such a great example of his style.
(This isn't to compare. We are just enjoying a double shot of Ron's work and teasing you for the book...
