We can't see anything  about the note, like those critical details and close ups we need to see  what you are seeing in hand. If you have a way to back light  the note as if on a light table that will work better. You will also  need to block out the back ground so you can post the largest image size  of the note as possible. Try putting a sheet of paper against a  window (not with direct sunlight coming through) and then rest the note  against the paper, shooting pictures with this filtered daylight coming  through the paper may work better. Otherwise, try to lay a sheet of  clean smooth paper with no patterns, color or watermarks in the paper,  over a sheet of Plexi or glass, put a lamp behind the glass and the note  on the opposite side. You will have to adjust your white balance on the  camera most likely. The frame of your photo should also crop out as  much of the background as possible, and even more so in a photo editor  afterwards as you don't need to have all that background showing. There's an example of a back lit note I made in this thread: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t100002/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t100002/">French échantillon notes </a>[/QUOTE]
