This a basically just a full body portrait of one of my guys, Tucker. It was taken at an IA station in Hardenia, Iraq. The only source of light was from a wall mounted, bare bulb. Nothing too special but I liked the finished product. I shot at ISO 800, so some editing was done to reduce visible noise.

EOTech on an SPW makes me sad. ._.

Still, it's a nice shot. Brings back good memories~

Thank you, as far as the weapon and sight; I don't know a whole alot about either. I know how to use the 249 and I know how to turn the EOtech on, but beyond that I am pretty much just along for the ride. Is it a bad combo?

Not necessarily bad, just not ideal. ^^; The EOtech is better served on M4s, as it's more of a close range combat optic. Better put, you don't wanna use it with light or medium machine guns. The Elcan M145 would be better suited for the task, in my opinion, if they want/need optics for such weapons.

Then again, you make do with what you have. I know mine sure as hell wouldn't get us anything new unless we plain-out destroyed what we already had and new it couldn't be salvaged in any way. ~_~
