Rattlesnake Sierra

Still trying to figure the site out and, as you can probably tell, I'm still learning how to take pictures. I have been told that as a photographer I make a pretty good salesmanager.

Nice job. Hard for me to turn snake skin because I fear snakes. I thought turning a pen and handling it that way might help the phobia, but I still fear snakes. Makes a classy looking pen on that kit.

Very nice pen. Good work.

Alex; Very nice pen! I like the rattlesnake skins.

I too am still trying out how to take good photos. One thing I have been told is to use manual focus and focus on a photo card with a grid on it. My Canon Pro-1 in manual focus takes three photos at focus, -1 and +1 focus points. That hopefully will give good results. Been working on other projects so no pen time for a while.

Nice looking pen, the snake skin combines well with that kit.

Alex, I like the combo, I've not tried any snake skins, but I've heard the are difficult at times, looks like you did a great job, too bad about the soft focus, I'll bet it's gorgeous.

Alex:
That's a seriously nice pen. My compliments. Once I get a little more experienced at pen turning I'm planning to get some snake and try a couple myself. I hope this isn't too tacky of a question, but what do you think a pen like that would sell for?
