Me, too. I wish it was easier to find some reasonably priced ammo in most of my revolver calibers.

Since I posted a couple of the big guys (Super Blackhawk 44mag and Shaman) the other day I'll post a couple of the little guys(LCP 22lr and Honeybee) today.

I actually didn't like Glock at first with the first few that I used.
It was when I got a hold of my first 21 that it finally clicked for me.

No lights moved. You are correct about the flat lay and dragged shutter. Lights are actually layered with time. 2 white, 2 red, and 2 green above near the focal plane of the camera and finally 2 studio strobes defused from the sides at the rear shutter curtain.

The lights are layered in over the duration of the open shutter to control the strength they have in the final image. The red and green are on for the entire time of the exposure, the overhead whites come in partway through, and then the flash really kicks in from both sides at the end washing most of the color from the highlight range including the white background but leaves green and red in the direct reflections, dark areas, and faint green and red directional shadows.

Outstanding work. Looking forward to more images.
Spyderco has a calendar photo contest every year.
TazKristi will probably post the rules for the 2023 Calendar this summer.
Here are the rules from last year.

A nice pairing. I'm in the process of converting my .357 NV to .44 spl. I'll pair it up with a Mule Team both with grips carved from the same piece of wood.
