And my sons squirrel.

This is the only photo I have. Its not the best, but I'm still proud of it. This buck was taken 2 weeks ago.

Jabar, I believe you thought wrong sir. Below is the original post by the man that started it and I do not read anything about "Your Best Shot." Looks to me like he was asking for whatever someone was willing to take the time to post.

Thanks to everyone for posting your pictures. Especially you COOCH. That's some great pictures in different settings and they came out great. I just started and the tone of the pictures is what I am trying to get right. A lot of mine have come out too white.

I thought it might be cool if folks posted photographs of themselves with game taken, or perhaps just the game alone and maybe your bow laying with it...whatever.. In an effort to do a better job myself of taking these photographs, I thought it might be cool to see the different angles and set ups that you've all done. Might be a great way to help us all become better at taking these shots. If you can remember any of the details, such as the size lens used, flash or no flash, etc..., please include that as well.
Thanks,
Chuck

I love looking at the photos of others whether there is a kill in them or not.   Keep them coming!

Here is my bow...no kill yet with it but here is the setup im using to take my photos.  
 
     

Sony DSLR
ISO 100
26mm
F 7.1
1/160
AEL on mountain

18-75mm 3.5-5.6 Lens
ND filter
Sigma flash bounced to the left side.

Focused it a little wrong as the bow is slightly blurry...but all in all, I liked the look of it.  

Enjoy!

Great pics everyone!

There's some really great picts on this thread and I've enjoyed looking through them.

Here's one from a few years back I've always liked. Looking back, I wish I'd removed the face paint but I didn't have stuff with me to do so and I was a long ways from the truck. And pretty happy at the time.

[Ray Hammond]

nice photos guys!

I think my all time favorite hero shot was Denny Sturgis' dall sheep... if you've never seen it you should search the powwow for it...it's what I consider to be the best all around shot ever....the setting, the set up, the lighting, the subject, the smile, everything is what a tasteful hero shot should be...hats off to Denny for getting it right.
