I have recently been reading several articles, listened to several outdoor podcasts, discussing "Grip and Grin" style photos and how they may or may not be perceived by the non hunting world. Below I pasted some links to two interesting articles on the subject. I never really gave it any thought until recently. I, being a hunter, have no problem with grip and grin style pictures and just about every picture I have of me celebrating a successfull hunt would fall in to the grip and grin category. I also have absolutely no ill feeling, obviously, towards any other hunter who chooses to display his or her success in such a way (I do absolutely HATE force perspective in photos though). But after reading some articles it got me thinking about the topic and how maybe I can evolve as a hunter, outdoors enuthiasist, and conseravtionist. Maybe I can try to be creative and take a different style of picture that better represents the sport I care about in a different light to those who haven't participated or are not a fan of. So I think with the upcoming seasons about to begin it would be cool to start a thread where people display pictures of their hunt and their trophies in a manner other than the traditional "Grip and Grin". I think with todays cellphone cameras and the like that we can come up with some cool photos to share on the forum and to the world. What do you guy/gals think?
