Spinning Coin by Allison

Spinning Coin

I attempted to capture a spinning coin this evening. I found it so difficult, so much so I think my hair has prematurely greyed :-) lol I will attempt it again at a later date, but for now I'm ready for some TV and a glass of wine :-)
Very cool

@kerenmcsweeney haha I think it looks like I had the glass of wine before I took the shot, and yes, you have to.....if just to see how much patience you have ;-)

Cool!! My daughter was playing with a coin and chopsticks earlier spining the coin, and I had thought hmm spinning coin, though now maybe not lol

i think it is a super attempt ...though it msy not be to your liking .. you really use light so well ...definitely look forward to more attempts ... now ...for that bottle of wine you reminded me of :-)

LOL! Your creativity knows no limits! Awesome!

I like this - I am going to steal the idea. Hope you don't mind! Enjoy the drink.

Ian
Great effort and the lighting is spot on
August 30th, 2013  
Cool idea. Excellent!
August 30th, 2013

@jroda thank you so much Jennifer :-)
@nicolecampbell isn't it a bear.......thanks Nicole :-)
@wudybearest thank you Judy :-)
@alaya lol oh yes, lots of ranting :-)
@kylec thanks Kyle :-)
@debihas27 thank you Debi.....much appreciated :-)
@neakwagener lol once you get the technique and lighting figured out, you're all set. It also doesn't help that the coin moves, and the first few shots, I used a flash, so it froze the coin, which made it look like it wasn't moving, so lots of playing with shutter speed.........the things we do :D lol
