64
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Solid 64.

Another excellent job on your photos. Tell us how! Thanks Ham! The way I shoot varies greatly from how most everybody here shoots their coins. I use a pentax K1 on a tripod pointing down on the coin but the biggest difference is that I shot with strobes instead of constant light. |

Not to hijack the thread (well okay, a little bit of a hijack  ), but that K1 is a VERY good camera. What lens are you using with it? the Pentax smc Pentax-D FA 100mm f/2.8 WR Macro? If you'd like to start a thread in the photography forum, I'm sure there would be a few folks interested in learning more about your setup. |
