Images of my Coins (work in progress)

Recently I started a thread that the images I uploaded created a problem with uploading. My images were too large and I have asked to have the thread deleted. My apologies to you all in the matter. Thank you.

So I am again trying to image my Lincolns (Nowhere near as good as my friend Robec). I have had little success in the past but I think I am getting better at it. The only adjustments I have made to these images is sharpening them using Photoscape. I used two 60watt daylight 5000k light bulbs, which I am thinking may be too bright and a Nikon coolpix camera with Macros (which I am having difficulties figuring out). I would not mind any constructive criticism in regards to these images as I will not get any better at it without your opinions. Thanks you.

You have sorted the coins as per the year on them, these collections are magnificent

 

Must be those with slow modems. These are nice, but I think it might be too much light. They do look washed out and I bet in hand several have more luster than is showing. Still your picture are better than what I can do.

Nice collection.

 

Ha, ha that's me. some on here take really pro pictures but even these pictures are better than I seem to do. but I'm workin on it.

 

Very nice. I especially like the 55 S.

Working on images again today. Here is a 1957-D Filled B Lincoln 1c shot with 2 40w daylight bulbs at 5000k and 1 60w nat daylight bulb at 5000k as well. Let me know what you all think. Thank you for your time.

 

I think this is your best one so far!!

It only needs a teeny more light at 6 o'clock and a teeny less at 12.

This one looks like you could just pick it off the monitor.

 

Working hard at it. Thanks for all your help Bob. Ended up buying new lamps and found the 40w light bulbs so just a few steps closer. Camera is still giving me a hard time but I will eventually figure it out lol.

 

Hey Gonzo we have a coin show coming up the end of the month if you can make it.

 

Where at? You know I am in if there is no conflict with military duty.
