Nice Pics!
I don't have any quality pics of my Ricks, but I just wanted to say that those who have posted them have done some great photography!

There's no reason that you, too, couldn't learn to do the same. 

Re: Nice Pics!
Decent digital cameras are muy cheapo these days, so with a little practice and a few tips anyone can produce pleasing pics. 

All I wanna do is rock!

One can get really good pictures on some older models, too. I took this 'artsy' shot on my older Olympus D-400Z:

Very artistic photography !!
(That's why my avatar photo came from Clauson studios !)

Re: Nice Pics!
I've found that I can technically do the right things to get a good picture (sometimes with a bunch of help), but what I have the most trouble with is composing the shot so that I take a picture that's actually interesting instead of just a crummy shapshot...
That's a nice pic Gary!

That's a nice pic Gary!
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

To get better at composition just look at lots of photos and analyze them.cjj wrote:I've found that I can technically do the right things to get a good picture (sometimes with a bunch of help), but what I have the most trouble with is composing the shot so that I take a picture that's actually interesting instead of just a crummy shapshot...

Re: Nice Pics!
Yeah, I try to do that, but I'm lacking one critical thing -- practice!

Re: Nice Pics!
I've tried, and I just can get a decent shot from my digital camera (or any other for that matter <smile>). I work in Graphic Arts, but on the technical side. My only creative outlet is music, which I feel is great, although some "artists" might disagree.
My wife is an Art Director, so I'll have to ask her (she's an artist that appreciates music, but she bought a Fender. A good guitar, but, well, you know).
