Message:: [QUOTE="north49guy, post: 1219601, member: 16065"]Hey guys, So like everyone else here, I've always questioned and struggled with photographing my coins and had gotten good, but not really good. I finally decided a while back to do an axial lighting setup. It took a while to get the logistics down and everything, but after a loooong time of planning and building, here it is! I've got the base covered in black felt along with all the blocks on the board. The blocks that hold up the glass can be moved to adjust the glass if you dont want it at a 45 degree angle for a certain coin. Depending on the coin, I will also use a filter for the light (like a white piece of tissue paper or something similar). I have included a before and after shot of a coin. Enjoy guys:thumb: <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/floridaguy/CIMG1372.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/floridaguy/CIMG1373.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> BEFORE <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/floridaguy/1871PEIcent1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> AFTER <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/floridaguy/1871PEIcent.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> [/QUOTE]
