Great shot! I'm not sure how I missed this. Even with the clipping (overblown highlights), it still looks very good. I'm not 100% sold on the knife being in the picture as it doesn't add anything, and the highlights off the frame in front of the grip pull the human eye down anyway. The image ends up becoming slightly off balance, but for a internet picture, it is stunning.
It really is a very nice pic.

Just trying to get good high detailed picture of my gun. I'm terrible about staging pictures since I'm an engineer and not creative in that area. I was trying to get the lighting right with a couple of crappy lamps. I was wanting a picture that gave me good depth of field and high detail of all parts of the gun. The only post editing of the pictures was to water mark it.
My other picture. I was goofing around and took this one and later ended up liking it but got mad that I used fake ammo instead of a belt of real ammo in the shot. Something is off slightly in the shot though and I'm not sure how to correct it.

In all honesty I’m not sure what I was going for here, but I like the way it turned out.
Lets start with the second picture, because that to my eye is a simple cure. I have taken the liberty of cropping and rotating the image, and remarked it is there is no question that YOU are the one who shot it, and not I. The shadow / minor grey should get cleaned up for this, but the idea isn't for me to mess around with your image, it was just to show the difference with rotation.
I agree with you with the dummy rounds not helping anything, but the rest of the image, as shown, is very very good. Let me know what you think of the difference with the crop the way I did it. You might hate it, and that is fine. If you want the image pulled down please let me know, I am certainly not attempting to create any hostilities.
