And the plot thickens. Scott just came forward and posted his response on the TCCS board. Check it out....
Figured I would give you something to shoot for! [IMG] Good Luck!
Make sure that you set your white balance on your camera to the appropriate setting every time before you take a photo. If not, the white balance...
I like the detail and the luster, but the coin has a green tint. I think your white balance is off. Go to photoshop and hit auto-color and see...
