<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 8204520, member: 106826"][USER=124772]@Kristine Garrant[/USER] It sounds like your experimentation is going well. To be frank, I got interested in how to create solid photos with a shoestring budget. Not that I couldn't afford a fancy setup, but I'm driven by challenge and optimization...doing more with less. And I figure that most folks aren't interested in sinking a chunk of money in costly setups if they could/would rather buy a coin that they need. I like the challenge myself, most of the time. And I was able to learn from many other community members some tricks of the trade. While I am a few levels down from the expensive setups and beautiful pictures, my pics aren't half bad. Have fun experimenting and if you are like me, make it an extension of the hobby. And leverage your other knowledge about light (reflection/absorption) with respect to color and picking a backing. I'll bet you will paint a room in the future and think to yourself, this would make a great backing to a coin pic. I will be to blame for that!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
