Wild Rose by a Landslide!

I can't believe that Wild Rose won by such a large margin this week, as all the photos looked very good. I think the determining factor was all those killer props. Everytime I looked at his image, I saw something new and interesting. Very cool!

Great work everyone!

Alex

All the pics were good, but that one was a standout.

Thank you all.

Considering that I did those only after the urging of a few of my fellow sheathmakers I am totally flabbergasted!

I thought for sure there were better photos there. I guess it just clicked.

Again thank you all and I'm glad you liked it.

Yes, indeed, Chuck deserves this fine win. I voted for myself just to avoid getting totally skunked, but his image deserved my vote.

I too kept coming back to look at it again and again. It just told a very interesting story.

On to week 28!

Nice work, Chuck! It's fun to learn and submit your work.

Nice to see the new faces amid the old hands and come out smelling like a ....ROSE!

Talent unlimited----

Chuck Burrows has proven his talent creating fabulous leather tooling and construction of one of a kind sheaths and gun leather. His talent with the written word and ability to paint pictures with words is outstanding----and now he caps all that with photos that tell the story of yet another talent. He gives unstintingly of his time and knowledge to all in a modest, unassuming fashion and is a credit and asset to the CKD.

That's a Wild Rose of course. Not only do they smell wonderful but the rosehips are wonderful for keeping the doctor away.

Since fancy photos are a hobby that I do only in my spare time (BIG LOL ) it was a nice surprise. Just glad folks enjoyed it. And I really wasn't planning on giving it another go right away but last night when I saw the new shot I was stoked! Sooo....

Sandy - you're making my head swell again pardner!

glad you took the prompting, chuck. congrats.
i recall recently commenting on one of the entries that i don't care for knife photos that are too 'busy'. in contradiction, i really liked this one, and wondered why? i'm thinking along the lines that alex mentioned - killer props! keep it up (as if you have nothing else to do)
