Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 06/24/2011 5:06 pm The marks on the face and field will probably bring it to MS62/63. Great photos. What camera and lens are you using and what are you using to defuse the light? Report this Post to the Staff

That lens is a cannon 18-55mm and I used a plastic milk jug (semi clear one) with the bottom and top cut off. I also have a solid White Milk jug and a 70% Opaque Lamp shade I use some times. The last one works great for proofs. Edited by Namachieli 06/27/2011 7:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
