I should have waited for better, cleaner images, but I can see the Vitro possibilities as well... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted November 4 Report Share Posted November 4 If the Akro glows chances are it’s a carnelian. They always glow. I say that because all of mine do. They are close to being my favorite Akros. 🔥 RAR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrie Ann Posted November 5 Author Report Share Posted November 5 I'm really sorry about the pictures I am getting a new phone because this looks like it's going to be a pretty good hobby now and I would like to be able to have good pictures there's nothing like a fuzzy picture right sorry guys I have an old phone that when I bought it was because I quit coins and I sell coins and the pictures are so terrible I can't even use it for that and my coin trading has dropped down quite a bit in last year well I will try to get a better focus on it and thank you for your help I do appreciate it I'm learning lot from you guys 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The females on this board are equals if not advanced from the guys and I will alway point this out when I have an opportunity to do so. I/we appreciate all collectors regardless of gender. If you were a coin collector/seller--just get a handle on your images. You were used to shooting flat images--just focus on the upper side--just below the top of the marble--start with that and move on. Practice makes perfect.....we did this with film in the past--uploaded--copied and uploaded --What a drag--now I can take 100 images and pick out the best in a minute or two. You can do it--I know that you can. Marble--On!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie Ann Posted yesterday at 03:32 AM Author Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:32 AM Thank you so much for the encouragement and yes coins were flat but they still had to be really detailed and crisp so you can see every letter and number, but it was kind of like one dimensional compared to these marbles they're beautiful I used to have them when I was a kid in grade school and I was good at playing marbles so I had a lot of marbles, but I've never knew how complex how many different people made them in companies made them and the different styles and I'm starting to recognize some of the things that stand out for different styles of the makers it's such an art thing isn't it I love it thank you for letting me in and I got a whole lot more marbles you going to see I'm just trying to cool it for a minute so you don't get tired of it real quick I appreciate your help I really do thank you very much 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all here because of marbles--show us yours and be proud about it. The folks here will coach you on how to really shoot a marble (image wise). Marble--On!!
