[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3204362, member: 77814"]Also, try to use a white, grey or black background such as these 3 colors. If you use other backgrounds you have to remember that light reflects. If you use a neon pink background then there's this thing called "color cast" in which the reflected light, reflects and can make an object take on that color as it's going to reflect too. So if you bright silver proof quarter looks like a Pink Hello Kitty quarter because it's on a neon pink background ... well, we told you so. :) [ATTACH=full]830082[/ATTACH] All of the above is just learning basics of photography. Coin Photography can get expensive when the experts chime in of their equipment set ups with bellows and such. You'll also want to take the photo from directly above, not at an angle or at least perpendicular unless asked or provides better detail of height such as with die cracks versus scratches. Angles, closeup and wide angles can distort images badly.[/QUOTE]
