<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3981722, member: 19463"]Obviously there is more than one way to look at the matter. You can say a image is only required to be good enough to tell what it was or you can desire an image that will be fun to see and share that might even show small details that require magnification to see. Photos are easy; good photos require a bit more effort. I hope you will stick with it and be able to share the best you can do. I do admit that my photography has had an effect on the coins I buy. I have been known to avoid a coin because I know that it will be hard to photograph. When I 'need' to buy, for example, a glossy black coin that I know will be a problem, I pay the price and have to shoot it several times before I get an image I can accept. It would be easier to blame the coin for being bad that to admit my skills are weak in the area.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
