[Rethunk]

Nice and round

taxi for pq! one way to the asylum please...

it's butterfly spliced and rounded but the the light/shadow in pic does make it look like it's coming to a point.

so you're only a little bit mad after all...

Is that your own cue?

Is that your own cue?

You bet. I received it last Monday. Although I took a few pics of the cue earlier this week with my iPhone, this is the first picture I took of the cue--specifically of the shaft without the butt--using a proper camera.

I'm intending to take photos of the Shark and my other cues side by side so that players can see how carom, American pool, and snooker cues compare. Getting the angles I want is going to take a few tricks, but I have my methods.

More within the next few days.

I like that picture, very sharp contrast...and is different from regular cue pictures we see all the time.

This image isn't Photoshopped or tweaked except that I cropped the original 3k x 2k image and then reduced the resolution. I just placed a piece of white paper on the floor, bunched some snooker balls together, and balanced the shaft of the cue on top of the balls. My Nikon and 60mm macro lens took care of the rest.
