I've found a piece of synthetic grass that I bought at one time and thought that it could be fun to take pics of my "Cow print" frogskin's on that.

We are always trying to do the best pics we can of our glasses, and I thought it would be interesting to turn away from that.

I love it!

Great set up and very funny, would look good in a book Francois.

Very cool shot, indeed. Inspirational!

Almost too 'on topic' for the off-topic area.

It might just be me, but the frames look a little pink in that pic. But I agree. That's a very creative shot, Francois. Great imagination! This could spawn a whole new thread of creative shots with your Oakleys. What else we got?

It might just be me, but the frames look a little pink in that pic.

Maybe it's the light set-up who gives that impression.
The black spots are also fading a little in the white matter. That looks a little bit pinky.

And about "what else" ... nothing o_O

Maybe a pic on my bathroom Oakley carpet, but I'm afraid that the carpet photo style is copyrighted.

Well, I do have a pretty cute idea for the Dalmation pair. =) Dawn said today she wanted to get that...

Nice pic. SHould go in the gallery.

that looks great , how about one of the ducati series on an actual ducati bike ?

Buy me the bike and I'll find a way to put all our Ducati frames on the bike!

The closest ill ever get to a 999

Haha, nice pic Jose !

Heh ! I got an idea for a pic, but I'll need some time/luck to do it. ^_^

Maybe we could rename this thread for "Creative photo set-up", finally it should be more appropriated

I agree. Let the creative juices flow! I especially agree with the renaming of the thread. This is far from stupid.

Francois: I made the change, good idea, will try to think of something and contribute.

Jose: great one, the bike really has lots of details.

Say what

HA! Interesting.

Hey Dann, what was at that link you posted? It's dead now. :(

I might still have it at home, but it basically explained how to properly photography glasses for a shop, should you not use the stock pictures.

I like this Pic OTT's on the OTT Racecar
,That PDF is for the Warranty process, The Oakley Warranty process entails taking a couple of pics of the glasses for ID and Preliminary evaluation.Trust me if you don't show them how to take a picture you'll get some that are pretty..."abstract"

I'm pretty sure I saved everything that was returned when I Googled "PDF site:oakley.com" but let me check.

I think we need to fill this thread up. Five years later, I'm still in love - absolutely in love - with François' picture. Maybe I'll try and come up with a few ideas over the next couple weeks...

I thought this pic from the instagram contest might fit here. ☺

Here's one I did tonight

Nice selective lighting Francois!

look at all em coins!
