good day for photos

CarlWohlforth

I have not found a lighting set up where I can consistently get great toner photos and great cameo photos. When it comes to color cameo coins I usually have a hard time.

The indirect light I get in the mornings often works well for color coins. In the afternoon there is often too much light coming in my office. Well today we have a very grey day. I guess the clouds are acting like a good diffuser. Also the grey clouds reflect a good color off silver coins. Anyway I am pleased with the following photos and wanted to share.




I also took photos of an uncirculated quarter:

Nice shots. What camera are you using?

Very nice Carl. I know what they look like based on your pics. That's a compliment, and I like the coins too.

Thanks gang!

I'm using a Nikon Coolpix 4500. I strive for accuracy, but as you know it is hard to capture more than one characteristic of a coin in one photo.

Those are excellent pictures....not too much glare....not too shiny....not too dark. Yet, you can still see all the detail. Excellent!
