Thanks to all of you who did not doubt my entry. I had some very complimentary and helpful comments and I appreciate every one. To everyone else I hope you can take me at my word, I am not the type of person to ever do anything dishonest.
Okay... how many tries? I think this is one that would work a little better with some more blur to indicate motion (not for this challenge, but just to make the best image). Trouble is, I have this habit of standing coins up on end...
I can place a picture on a table and call it spinning too but that dosen't mean it actually was. I like the composition and all its just not a good example of a stop motion picture
Nice shot. It either needs to be centered exactly, or more off-center. The light reflections are a little blurry, but that convinced me that the quarter was actually spinning.
I like the idea with the coin (I'm trying it myself now), but I think it would have been a more interesting picture, if the coin was at the end of spinning and in the process of falling over. That way it would give a better impression that the coin is in motion.
Good job! I tried this, and failed to get something I liked. It would be better if it was closer to finishing, but I know from experience that it isn't that easy. :) Overall, I like it.
This is a nice photograph of a spinning quarter. I can tell that it is spinning due to a little blur that is present in the photo. This photo could possibly be mis-interpreted as a stationary quarter because of the perspective. I tried some shots like this with poker chips. I found that getting down low with the camera and photographing the spin during the later stage when the chip was settling towards the table made a more dramatic shot.
