I'm interested. In fact, I had an idea to share. I thought it would be cool
to have a "MOC Stop" Folks wishing to have their MOCs photographed could
stop by. We make a set up with a table, some background paper, lighting and
a good Camera on a tripod. We snap a couple of pics of the MOC and they will
look great!
Get it? Like a MOC photo shoot corner.
Don't have a camera? Stop by the MOC stop and have a couple of photos taken.
Those same photos could be used to explain or show people how to achive the
best results.
Sounds good?
Anyway, I'm down to learn more about photography. I'd like to listen.
