<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2690719, member: 19463"]Lighting <u>is</u> the hard part. I just bought an expensive ($29) new light and am quite happy with my first tests but I'm not ready to say it would help people who don't have their camera figured out and certainly won't help those who don't see a need for a camera. Your latest are well above average for this list. Caring enough to practice means a lot. I have only one new coin since I got the new light so I guess it is time to reshoot the losers. Half of the time I reshot coins I had shot before and the result was worse not better. However if the other half turned out better I should be happy --- right? The easiest way to be a good photographer is to take 1000 pictures and only show people the best one. They do not need to know about #2 or #1000.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
