How to make pics of an looong Swiss G 1911

[gunner]

Hello,
today i finished the restoring of my Schmidt-Rubin Gewehr 1911. So i want took a few pics of it. No problem. Take some black cloth for the background, look for some plasticpieces (to do like John Holbrook), checked the lights. Than took the camera and let`s go. But what the heck was this? I can only see a little more than the half of my rifle and still white socks! OK, gone downstairs took a ladder and returned. Than i gone step by step upwards the ladder by looking trough the camera. BANG! The room was lower than i had it in my mind.
Now, here are some reasonably usable pics. Otherones needs Ibuprofen for getting in prone position, i need it for taking some pics.

Regards

Gunner

Sorry, the 3rd and 4th are the same.
