I like your photo and the really nice 2 cent piece... fyi - I uploaded your 1st photo into Google Picasa 3 and selected the auto lighting adjustment tuning option/adjustment - below is the result with its modifications of highlights & shadows.

What camera/cell phone are you using for your photo?

Cancel my question on what camera you are using - the histogram/camera info for the image indicates a Canon EOS Rebel T2i - 1/8s shutter, focal lenght 100m f/14.0, ISO 100

Wow what a great 2 cent piece (& photo)!

A plastic tripod on some mason jars with two part lids to try and reduce the vibration

I love how you have come up with a simple solution to a difficult problem. I like to see others inventiveness, it helps inspire me. I do have one suggestion; place the mason jars on old mouse pads that are turned upside-down, this may help dampen more of the vibrations that you are dealing with.

Also remember that free advise is worth every penny (or cent) that you pay for it.
