Nice shot - I think Richard's suggestion was a good one - I like this version better. It's a lot easier to focus on the coin.
Glad you posted the 30 trial comment. Sometimes when I see your photos I think "damn, he makes it look easy" - nice to know that even the best have to slog through at times. Your persistance paid off.

Thanks Richard. I think the particles are not dust, just reflections from the low-angle flash light. I removed the larger ones, hope it is better now. MCsaba

Great capture on the movement of the coin. For me the specs of dust on the wood are a little distracting.

Hi Chris, this is a spinning coin with one exposure and strobe flash (4 flashes in 0.3 seconds with my old Metz 40MZ3). Not as easy as it looks to catch this, I had only this one looking "less or more good" out of ~30 trials. MCsaba

How'd you do this? Multiple exposure or multiple flashes or ????
