Some of my photography

We all make stuff other than pipes, so here's a place where "anything goes" as far as showing off some of your projects and other hobbies.

Some of my photography

Post by The Smoking Yeti »

Hey all, I'm new to the forums and pretty new to pipe making.

I'd like to say thanks first off- the information on this site is astounding. My pipemaking i.q. can't help but grow with every post I read. I really hope to learn a lot from you guys, so I must say thanks for being here.

One of my biggest interests- aside from woodworking, is photography. I'm currently going to school for photojournalism in Missoula Montana.

Here are a few of my photos-

I've grown up in a family dedicated to fly fishing. This is a fish my brother caught this past Spring.

This is a shot of the Milky Way, rising over Lena Lake in the Bob Marshall Wilderness. I took this during a forty some odd mile trek this last Summer.

A wintery sunset over Missoula from a few weeks back. The person in the foreground is a friend of mine.

Welcome, and great pictures! If you can take great pics you're already ahead of the game in the pipe making world. I can't tell you how many times my poor photography has made my pipes look bad. I mean, who knew that a bad photo could make perfect grain look like it has pits, beautiful buttons look misshapen and superior shaping look defunct...

I'm blaming it all on my camera :lol:

All that nonsense aside, welcome, and your good photography will come in handy.

Nice photos! Welcome to the forum.

Now we have a Sasquatch and a Yeti. We just need to get the Loch Ness Monster to join and we will be all set! :P
