<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2131524, member: 19463&quot;]I&#039;ve tried many various methods of shielding the light from reaching the base where there is black fabric/foam/paper.&nbsp; It is much harder when the light comes from close to the lens as with the ringlight.&nbsp; If you make the shield very small so it is more effective but appears in the edges of the photo it is not hard to remove it in postprocessing.&nbsp; There are many ways that work.&nbsp; Play around with the idea and see which you like.&nbsp; These photos show a way I no longer use but it worked.&nbsp; I keep trying new things in the hope of finding &#039;better&#039; but usually the results are just &#039;different&#039;.</p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/0bgsetbl.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/0bgtube.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
