Tips for photographing Deer and Elk Mounts
« on: May 23, 2015, 10:39:46 AM »
I'm just wondering if anyone has tips for photographing mounts to make them look their best. Background, lighting etc. The pics Natures Way posts are really nice. Of course I realize that's because the work looks so nice to start with. I've taken some pics before that just don't convey how they really look. Thanks

I just put a black cloth over plywood and stapled it too make it nice and clean looking. I don't use any type of lighting, I do like to take pics outside with the same background when time and weather permits. You can post some pics or email them too me and I can try and help if you would like.
