Ray, it's far far from professional, but thanks for the comment. First, I take the pictures outside, about 2:00-2:30pm is the best time for strong indirect sun at my location. For close up shots, hold camera phone above the object about 1', zoom camera in, and then lower toward the object until it's framed as desired.
Good discussions on picture taking can be found in the "Discussion Forums".
Sticky: How to take pics of guns & small items.
Sticky: Luger photography, Norm's way.
Good stuff in these two.
