[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 527577, member: 2972"]The pics are great, Paul -- nobody needs to tell you that. :) A bit of constructive criticism: Looks like the slab is a bit scratched -- get out the plastic polish and buff those suckers out! The lighting is a bit dim at the top of the obverse shot. I know it's a tall order to remove this but you might try a light much farther away from your primary light towards 6 oclock to try and even up the light there. Also, moving your primary lights higher/closer to the camera may help, but will likely still show a dark area. Looks like you're getting a bit of slab glare causing a slightly lower contrast on the obverse shot. I know :) , not much you can do and still show the color. The reverse shot is a bit skewed. The reverse shot is a bit overexposed (blow highlights) due to uneven lighting. All that said, the above are really nitpicks. The photos are really, really good....Mike[/QUOTE]
