Black and White Photo's of some of my favorite coins and new additions, in response to the photo challenge.

in steemsilvergold •  7 years ago 

So I was nominated for this seven days of black and white photo's! It was an honour, but also something I'm not really into. I'm not sure it's a good use of blog space and great content. Especially when the contest also states you can't comment or anything. It's the same way I've felt about the colour challenge posts in the past. It's probably great photos to scroll though on Instagram but maybe not the best use of the blockhain.

Anyways I think It's rude to just say no! I've never really been great and saying no or setting good limits on my time. Likely why I have too many side jobs and hobbies and want to do more, I'm also not very good and being short winded. I'm also not an amazing photographer. All great reasons why you don't want me in the challenge anyways, but I am going to take this option to show off a few of my favorite coins in my collection and a few new pickups. It's hard not to talk them all up, but I'll try to respect that part of the challenge at least and just post a few photos. I'll even break them up with Day's so we can all pretend I did it!

See this one is still kinda red? Heck I don't even know how to make them black and white properly. It was black and white on my phone, but changed back to colour on my computer. Then I had to click some more buttons and it's not right. I'm probably disqualified now. Shit, I'm talking about the photo too...see, I suck at this.

Horray I did it! I'm sure it's in the rules you can only get nominated once so that should be the end of it. And since I'm doing it all wrong and I'm not going to nominate anyone else and go ahead and reverse nominate everyone to stop! It's okay the change you mind and quite part way though, come on you can do it!

I think this counts and I wish I had done it your way would have been easier as doing it did go against what I have been forcing myself to be more blog like on here ;)

Yeah, great feedback man, it really doesn't have the blog feel, I've always felt so guilty when I don't feel like I put enough content or work into a blog.

I started off with mainly photos but forced and taught myself yo-yo become more blog like

At least your actually a good photographer though... lol

Lol 😂 its a hobby I have fun with
But working to be a better blogger

Mate! I know we discussed this challenge earlier, but I like your style. I deem you worthy of keeping your upvote! 😁

Thx, I feel like I could just one and done it! Maybe this idea will catch on and we can get it all over with... lol.

It seems though taking the saturation out of photos of silver makes them look even better! lol

I hope to get my hands on #1 and #2 one of these days... I did enjoy you photos and considered these points myself when I was nominated.

Ohhh rounds.. I have #5 but in copper 5oz 😊
Love that you did all 7 in one post. I would have done the same.

What an idea, I'm 4 days into a 7 day challenge. Almost done.

I'm absolutely in love with your first two pieces! Is there a certain website that you got these from or are they stuff you found in shops? I'd love some like that! I'm a pretty new silver buyer but I'm up to 44 try ounces. You have great pieces! Definitely following!
