[QUOTE="Ordinary Fool, post: 2789025, member: 85318"]Since it appears she's gone elsewhere, perhaps you may wish to provide such a demonstration where a gold coin, having many faceted surfaces intersecting on and from various angles reflecting light, can appear patently silver, if not chrome. I can certainly photograph a silver coin and make it appear mostly gold without any post processing, but, you're really missing the keys in her photographs (around the circumference) and it would take huge amounts of fiddling and manipulating for me to photograph that shiny gold coin making it appear chrome, without a single surface reflecting gold or yellow colored light, including the white gold bezel reflecting the patently gold color of the coin's edge. Did you know that "old school*", jewelers often plated even white gold with rhodium? Do you know why? *I hate that term[/QUOTE]
