Default RE: Take Quality Harvest Pics!!.....tips/suggestions

I just watched "Primetime Bucks 6" last night and they actually had a segment on "Taking better pictures" and it was a pretty good quick segment.
The main tips were:
1. Place a rock or log underneath the chest cavity which will raise the animals front up and make it appear fuller
2. Use windex to clean away blood from the mouth.....will make the whites much whiter
3. They also used HuntingBry's suggestion of taxidermy eyes to eliminate the 'Dead' look.......it was pretty slick and I might have to get a set. You just pop them right in with the deers eyes (no need to pluck out the eyeballs! <img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle>) They looked great.
4. Get your weapon in the picture....helps tell the story.

I'm also looking forward to sharing my own pics this season.......I'll make sure I &quot;Practice what I Preach&quot;!
