    Nice! You might try setting the white balance on your camera to "tungsten" if you can, that is unless everything there is actually yellow. :)

    That is my lamp light. And I'm using a smart phone. And everything is its intended color or silver or copper. Thanks for the heads up tho.

    Ok, well then I would suggest looking at the images on another monitor, so you can see what the rest of us are seeing. Your "silver" coins and table top are yellow, not silver, on my calibrated monitor. Just trying to help! :)

    Oh I'm sorry for this misunderstanding. I'm aware that the pictures are yellow. I did that on purpose. The hue of the light makes it intentionally yellow but with the naked eye, the coins they are regular color.

    Cool bottom pic especially! Just wondering how you got the half dollar to stand at attention like that? I can only guess it's leaning against something?? wow.gif

    While you may not be able to adjust the white balance on your phone you might be able to clean them up a bit by adjusting the white balance in post using a program like GIMP, or even Paint.net works ok sometimes. Just my $.02, otherwise cool photos. Wish I had more space, time, and money to play with my photography.
