<p>[QUOTE="Denis Richard, post: 4653710, member: 112673"]Quality coin photography, for any application, starts with a good coin image. Here's a standard catalogue shot of a shiny 1 oz silver coin I took recently. It sounds like catalogue shots are what is being considered proper coin photography here. There's absolutely nothing artistic about the image below. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1148993[/ATTACH] </p><p>This is how the same image was used on the Shopping Channel, along with my additional packaging shots.

Brandon's shots are great catalogue images, no doubt, and I do those shots every day, but why stop there? How else can coin images be used?
