For a long time now I've wanted to access a thread dedicated to high quality images.  Not that I am amazing at photography, but with some photoshop skills and the right lighting, I do alright for me I guess.  

Lets start a thread dedicated to some high quality images.  Its hard to determine what a high quality image from other images so maybe a few guidelines:

You don't need an amazing camera, or an extremely high resolution image, preferably a very clear image though.  The key is lighting.  Some images off my phone are better than the ones people quickly take of there gun with standard cameras when the lights in the room, taken with a flash, tinted yellow with feet in the picture lol.  

In other words, I would like to think maybe a better way for deciding if an image belongs here is weather or not the user took his/her time with the picture to make sure the lighting was right and the image was clear.  I would expect photo's from Quib, stick, b3, Clasky, Mark, and others to appear here maybe.  If not, all is well, I'll have fun looking at whats out there!

So for quick and easy suggestions, one rule I think should be that any image taken on the living room carpet floor, or on the kitchen table, or those which have feet in the bottom of the image should automatically be disqualified for this thread.  Remember, this is not a thread for high quality AR's (though there are many that will be high quality rifles) this is a thread for high quality images.  Again, not that judging an images quality is something easily done, but without listing a ton of rules I think the general arfcom public can determine the quality of images.  

Here's a few of what I've got.  



















Not the best, but its a start! IM me for full res photo's if anyone wants one.

New Rule: If your going to post a picture, either your image has to include at least some part of an AR15 in it; or you can post a picture of a non-AR so long as you also include another picture of an AR (or at least some part of an AR).  Any picture you do post, has to be a high quality picture....(which is subjective and relative I know, but its the best we can do) This rule was added on page 134

If this isn't up to snuff let me know and I'll delete. I did try though. Here's my Colt sp2.

Nice pics

Ah, the David Blaine edition cool  

Good thread!

Here is a link as I can't figure out how to post a pic this large here on the forum. Once you open the link click the picture to expand it to full size. It's not a great picture as it's just on a plain white background but it shows the detail on a complete carbine pretty good

Here is a composite of images I did for my portfolio. I have been a pro photographer for many years. I finally decided to shoot some of my toys.

Ok, I'll play.
