New year, and that means new calendar pics!!DWF Sign 

This is the best of four. It didn't turn out exactly 100% of what I was hoping for, but it may still useable for one of the cold calendar months.Smile

CF,

Nice winter scene.  We have been keeping snow around here too lately and I thought about a wintry pic as well.  I'll have to wait for the right set up to take place.  I see Lil Dan is loaded and ready for work!

I think the 2011 calendar will be better than the 2010 if that is possible!  Nice photo!

NICE picture!

May I suggest that be the July photo, as to offset the summer heat. Cool

Very Nice...where did it fall short in your expectations?

I was hoping to get more detail visible on the grip. This one's sorta dark, but it's the best I could coax out of my camera. One day I'll get a better camera.Smile

Here's another shot I took when I readjusted the lighting, to fix the dark grip problem. Only this time, the stainless on the gun is too light.Mad The camera has a difficult time trying to combine light & dark subjects like this.

My camera performs best usually, with full-on sun. Anything else, it just doesn't like…but now & then I get lucky with shade shots.

Here's the last two I took. I think these turned out ok overall, but that first one I like best out of the bunch.

I don't think there is anything wrong with your pictures. They look good!

I agree with SMF that last one is very good!  Shows a lot of Lil' Dan's features plus the background is excellent!  Send me some high resolution versions for the banner.

Maybe a weekly calendar this year, more pictures this wayLaugh?

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I really hope the demand/desire will allow for a couple of specialized calendars (we might even get a 1911 one this year?)

Maybe a Supermag only calender, or a specialized calender of our limited quantity guns (32 mag, 709, D-11, 414, etc).... 🙂

Seriously, here's my wish list:

SuperMags

Specialty/Customs (customized, engraved, etc)

1911

Historic/Rare (11's/12's, prokchops,Lil Dan, etc)

Packs/Small Collections

I'd buy one of each. BTW-I don't actually USE my calendar, it's a Collectors item now
