Taking Better Pipe Pictures ......Cam Schutte, Greater Kansas City Pipe Club

Would you like to take pictures like these so that you can show your pipes in all their splendor to your friends, forum members, and prospective customers?

It is my observation that everyone in our hobby enjoys seeing and sharing pictures of pipes, but so much of what is published on the Internet lacks the quality to make the experience really special.   This article will give every pipe enthusiast the tools to improve their photos.

I want to recognize and thank Jan Zeman, Zeman Pipes in New Zealand, for providing me with an explanation of his method for taking pipe pictures.  (If you haven't seen his pipe creations, please Click Here.)  Many of the suggestions offered in this article are from his notes.  The rest are from my experimentation and my experience using a table top lighting setup.   I hope you will have  fun giving it a try.
