Hmm... seems like you have too many cues on hand if youve begun experimenting with them. Send them my way, Ill be glad to take them off your hands. Love that first cue. Is that one of Ernie's medallion cues or just a one of kind. Sapele wood i believe?
 
hey

Jimmy, the pics are great. It shows off the cue very nicely with the all white background. No shine at all. And no shadow whatsoever.....very very nice

Answers to a couple of question: yes, Sapele wood and one of a kind. Yes, elephant ear wrap.

And thanks to Steve for his comments.

Those are some snappin cues there Jimmy, nothing like one of a kind Ginas
 
The second one with the flame veneers looks really classy. But of course, it can't beat the one in your avatar. :p
 
Great looking cue!!!

As for the pictures, I think that they are a bit over exposed.
I also think that you should try get less background either by placing the cue at 45 degrees or straight and crop the unnecessary background.
I took the liberty to adjust them a bit..... what do you think?

As was previously stated, the butt caps are blown out. The reflections are a bit distracting as well. Nice product though!!

Thanks for the feedback...................

I totally agree with your comments. This was my first attempt at something new. I will do some more stuff with cues at different angles, different lighting and backgrounds. Just playing around.

My retinas are on fire...... Imo the all white background is too bright. The pics came out nice though.
 
Your pictures show the details of the cues very nicely - sometimes although a picture is perfect (it isn't blurry and the brightness is correct as well) you still can't see the details because of shadows and the angle used.
With yours that is not the case, the details can be seen nicely.

I'd choose a little different background with some texture in it - like a white sheet or curtain - as that would give you some instant feedback about the brightness of the picture. If you can see the texture of the background the picture is good but if you can't it's over exposed.

Without changing anything else you can reduce the brightness by choosing a little bigger shutter time (or smaller, I mean 400-600-800 or so).

Anyhow, I really like the pictures and the cues even more. Is the second cue an 18B? I wanted to see a quality picture of one of those for such a long time.

jimmy, what affect are you going for in "trying something new"?
white background would be hard to work with . . . reflects so much light.
also may not compliment the ivory in the cues.
