Well... These are far from my best shots, but i happened to have them on tap and decided to pull them out rather than driving 20 minutes to pick up my guitar and try to get some shots of it. These were actually from one of my band practices that i happened to have my camera at and decided to snap a few photos. The second of the two i'm not thrilled with at all, but my friend enjoyed it. It was used for a small poster print and the goal was for it to be high contrast B+W with a high grain/posterization effect. I didn't like the loss of the string lines tho =\. The last of the 3 is my drum set at our last gig which doesnt really fit with the topic... but i felt like it might be fun to include

Oooo... I really wish i had my camera! I'll post some pics of my Ibanez,and My BC Rich Warlock when i do. =)
Loving some of these pics!

After my kids are in bed, I will see if I can steal my mom's camera (I am still waiting for tax money to be able to buy mine...) and take some shots of my dad's collection...

I'm still a newbie so I'm not sure how good they'll turn out, but it's worth a shot and I like playing with the settings on the camera and figuring out what they do

Pugs · 02-14-2010, 08:11 PM

A few from this afternoon. I'm leaning towards the B&W versions, but am posting the color versions as well so that y'all can decide which you like better.

Me + Tripod + My Favorite Camera + My Favorite Lens + My Favorite Guitar = A great afternoon and some new pics.

okay, so here's the one that I think came out the best for me...

The background is a mess, so ignore it, but I like the view I had on the guitar

Xdwardo · 02-15-2010, 09:33 AM

Could I submit something i've already taken guitar-related?.. Or does it have to be something new?

Guitar is the only qualification. Go for it.

I thought I'd give it a shot. I just started to get into photography last week when I bought my D5000. I've been into guitar forever though, so I suppose this is a way to mix the new with the old. I've been spending the last week taking photos of absolutely anything and everything trying to learn about the camera. I came across this section of the forum in a google search and decided to join, submit, and learn.

Here's my effort, Stage Right

Oooh. I didn't know we could post old stuff too,

.

I'll just post one old one, because I really do think it's probably the best guitar picture I have taken to date. I have posted this somewhere on here before this thread was created - so some of you might remember it.

all sizes

Taken with ambient room light, background was an open window.

Here's a few I snapped of my Epiphone Dot (335). C & C please.

pcacj · 02-16-2010, 07:52 PM

Beautiful photos so far. Happy Mardi Gras...
