I thought simply depicting a work of art was not legal for challenge entries?? Especially when there's no original twist to the photo, like original lighting or something...?
This could be straight out of an auction catalog, that's the kind of challenge, IMHO, that it would make sense for.
The lighting is nice, but I thought you couldn't take photos of existing art work. I think the center crop throws it off a little for me. I think it should be off centered. Rule of thirds.
I will truly be surprised if this does not get disqualified. I'm not reccomending it by any means. Hopefully for your sake, I'm wrong.
I think this is great documentation of the coin? or plate, whatever it is. It shows all of the quality, as well as the flaws in the metal. But it just makes me say, yep, it's a bronze plate, great.
