If you can slow down the shutter speed, a tripod will probably be needed too.

He(or she)who gets a pic of a guitar (Ovation)and a model(male or female) with the least amount of clothes wins.

... are you sure you want to go through with something like that? :eek: (You weren't here when the coconut bras and grass skirts were embedded in our mind's eye? NOT a pretty sight!)

And Sycamore - even if you do take the shots outdoors, don't forget to take a few with the flash too.

Yep! Outdoors, daytime and flash. Just don't shoot directly at the soundboard.

Location: Rego Park, NY,		A circular polarizer filter should help cut down on reflection. Also don't take the picture perpendicular to the guitar.
