<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2470249, member: 19463&quot;]I think you are doing well.&nbsp; The first Gordian could be improved in postprocessing by adding just a bit of yellow and lowering the overall saturation to make the blue less glaring.&nbsp; Of course our computers may not be showing the same thing so you may not like what I do and you may not be seeing what I see.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]519409[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I&#039;m not fond of the idea of the florescent straight tubes which I am not aware of coming in high color index (CRI) models and may come to problems with some patina colors.&nbsp; LED rings come better and less but usually are better than straight tubes.&nbsp; Some twist bulbs are excellent. </p><p><br /></p><p>I suggest you follow the following steps from here:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Be proud of what you have accomplished so far.</p><p>2. Play around with little changes that make the pictures worse and be aware when one of these little changes makes it better.&nbsp; </p><p>3. Don&#039;t think of postprocessing as a sin.&nbsp; In many cases, it is necessary to make little changes to make better into best.&nbsp; </p><p>4. Some coins are easier to shoot than others.&nbsp; Either buy coins you can photograph or don&#039;t be too hard on yourself when you find a coin that does not want to play. </p><p>5. Share your work here.&nbsp; You might just inspire some others here to get off their couches and make CT a prettier place.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
