Chad G. Posted November 23 Report Share Posted November 23 Leaning Vacor, try a 30Watt 5000k daylight bulb, no flash if you're using one, you won't get the reflection or refraction like you do now, I messed around W bulbs and flashes for months till I was happy. I prefer natural sunlight over all but living here in the Pacific Northwest doesn't provide much of that in the Winter. Your pix are getting better BTW 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrie Ann Posted Sunday at 08:43 PM Author Report Share Posted Sunday at 08:43 PM well we are just aged marble fans, I was born in 1958 and I don't mind saying so, we grew up in the greatest time in our country"s history, the music, the world was still a place where we could run around the neighborhood and was safe, t.v. was 5 stations and signed off at midnight man life has changed, but yes I'll take that they are vintage at least MARBLES ROCK! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickel Guy Posted Sunday at 11:28 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 11:28 PM I have never had the chance to say hello Carrie Ann yet. So Hello! Anyway, the Tiger Eyes are so cool. You can learn a lot watching this video here. I have watched all Stephen Bahr's videos a dozen times at least I bet. I learned a lot there and here on the forum as well.
