<p>[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3610771, member: 41219"]I spent a little time in the roasting heat and humidity (98 with a heat index of 108!) this afternoon trying to upgrade some of my coin photos in the natural light. I think these turned out quite a bit better than the original pictures I took. Do any of you have any before/after pictures?
