[QUOTE="Larry Moran, post: 536075, member: 4580"]Unquestionably, the color balance looks better in pics in Post 36. : ) You may have already tried using white balance preset (WB) if your camera has that feature. Most cameras have settings that can be adjusted for the type of lighting: daylight, incandescent, fluorescent, etc. If that won't work with your camera, try a different type of bulb. A 5100K 'twist' bulb will usually provide a color that should be just about right, though I do a White Balance Preset every time I change my lighting around, even changing position of lighting. Many cameras will not compensate accurately from lighting originating from two types of lighting. The only time I use a different color lighting is to produce highlights of a different shade or color. In those cases, I preset white balance for the main lighting, then turn on the other lamp for highlights and take photos without changing anything. Let us know how it goes. We'll be watching for your upcoming pics. : ) The reason I'd have OP coin slabbed is that is it one of the cleanest Morgans around, even with its few marks which are minor. There are many 65 Morgans with more marks. I'd send this one to PCGS as opposed to others. They seem a bit more lenient when it comes to nice Morgans. : )[/QUOTE]
