<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Louie_Two_Bits, post: 803406, member: 17748&quot;]You do very good work; your nature photography is purely AWESOME! I&#039;m a sucker for macro photography. </p><p><br /></p><p>I too am just starting out in numismatic photography. I think I have all the equipment in place, now it&#039;s all about honing my technique. As you probably know, it&#039;s all about the lighting. I&#039;ve experimented with natural light, florescent bulbs, halogen, soft light, and bright light. I think I have it narrowed down to GE Reveal bulbs and GE PAR30 floods. I use parchment paper stuck onto wire coat hangers for light diffusers. I tried axial lighting techniques, but they weren&#039;t that successful for me. The book I would highly recommend is Numismatic Photography by Mark Goodman. It tells you everything you need to know about photographing coins. There are some photography experts here at CT, so hopefully they can chime in and give you some expert advice and tips to point you in the right direction.</p><p><br /></p><p>-LTB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
