[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 636142, member: 17557"]Well the pictures are small, they need to be a little bigger and show more detail Your pics make it so the coin is like a 70, I don't see any flaws on your coin, and that is not the case. You need to find the right balance between the color of the coin, the details of the coin, and the light. You'll get there with more practice. A word of encouragement, you are a lot better at taking photos, than I was when I kept trying and experimenting! Now I don't use any zoom, at all, I get maybe about 1 foot or so away, and take my picture, then I crop it, then crop it round so I just get the coin, and I combine the reverse and obverse using photoscape. I have one light, bendy neck halogen lamp, and another lamp that I put over the coin. Take advantage of lamps with a bendy neck, I suggest getting two of them, and mess around with em' a little bit. Just keep trying you'll get it![/QUOTE]
