I want to make moves toward acquiring a collection of pictures of flashlights based on their artistic appeal, quality materials and craftsmanship. I understand that there is a great deal of subjectivity in this kind of endeavor. At the outset I intend to include flashlights that, first of all, I like very much to look at, primarily--maybe to have in hand (many fewer.)
From you participants in these forums I would be looking mostly for suggestions in finding available nominees from general production rolls, mostly disregarding the highly esoteric and highly expensive. Also I probably will be mostly concerned with acquiring pictures or images that I can store on my computer. These images will be the main focus of the collection, rather than the flashlights themselves "in the flesh." Probably permission to copy these images will be a major factor in this "collection."
