Farmingdale Twins
« on: July 01, 2005, 04:46:27 PM »
With BobnearPittsburgh joining and adding to our numbers of double pup owners - I realized that in all this time I had never actually gotten around to taking a ''side-by-side'' pic!

I have remedied that - even for once left genuine S/N's on - heck Rohrbaugh knows who they belong too so doubt any problem over their exposure.!

Chris,

Very nice composition on those two pups - have you given them any special names - like Bonnie and Clyde.

I left the mountains and went down to BobnearPittsburgh's house when he got his first R9 several weeks ago to hold it for a long while.  Told him to let me know when the twin comes in so I can visit and welcome it to the family.

My twins...although one is a brother from another mother.  My pictures are kinda sloppy...I've tried everything short of reading the manual or pushing any of the buttons other than the GO button to improve.  On another note, I've decided for now to shoot/carry the Farmingdale gun and just leave the new one unfired until I decide what to do.

Touché logical - :)  Nice idea there... pleasantly different.

What might make 'em even better - no direct lighting like flash but - two or three light sources from different positions and maybe even a white sheet over to diffuse and then soften shadows a bit.

Logical

The longer you keep both the harder it will be to part with one.  Maybe you are meant to be a two pup man.  

Nice showing both frame colors.
