Henry Big Boy Steel, .357. June 27, 2018. Thrilled like when I got my first lever action for Christmas decades ago.

Took some pics but they all had my kitchen counter, coffee maker and boxes of ammo as background. Will take some tomorrow on the bench where I can set things up better. Photographing rifles is WAY harder than 1911s.

I've taken photos of all my Henry rifles, and agree with you that it is more of a challenge than a handgun. I really have to work at it with an older Nikon 35mm. Mostly I take my pics outside and take more than I ever post....have to pitch quite a number of not-so-good ones.

I've found I like to do this ---> just photograph sections of a rifle. I've even done that with a revolver. Anyway, I posted photos of my BBB right after I polished it one time, and it was so much easier to do this "sectional photo" group. Check it out at the first post on this Forum thread: http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.p ... itz#p12858

At the risk of double-posting, here are some pics from the bench. So-so initial outing, but Peep Sights are on the way!

The "#4" shots (5 of them) are after raising the buckhorn one notch.

_WELCOME!_.jpg
Greetings from the Show-Me-State, LC.

OK, now we'd all like to know what those five rifles are!! :) For just "starting to collect" Henrys, that's really great.
Glad you joined the Forum. Lots of good info and helpful, friendly Folk here.
