C'mon mate, that's not a gun. You're in Australia. Didn't the government help itself to your weapons?

lol.. U can see the plastic mold lines :)

In any case, the photo 'is' a little bland but I took it into photoshop and messed around with it and it has some potential if edited well.

Not bad, but I would have tried to focus more on the girl and not the gun..



Good Light and Shoot to the Right....

Nice but the grip is not believable and distracting.

not bad ...

to me i think it would be a little better without the glasses, earings & bracelet as they distract me (might be just me though , ya know the ADD haha)

also i think it would look loads better if you cropped it down so that you couldnt see much of the background in the dead space

Classic Charlies Angels grip. Doesn't work but it did give rise to a continuing series of poses for girls....

Hell why not take off the jacket, the shirt, the bra and the pants too? now that would have been a better shot

In such a anti-gun country doesn't it draw a crowd when you take a picture like this? I know here in the states if i saw this picture developing I am sure I would have one hand on my concealed LEGAL pistal wondering what was going on. By the way, i didn't notice it was plastic untill i read the posts, i did notice the two finger trigger pull though.
