Used Keifers Amazing circle link to make the "flowers" with a glass filter for extra shininess. Reuploaded thanks to Phil pointing out I messed up the res in the last one.
Couple of holes and they'd look like buttons. I havn't played with that tutorial yet but these are gorgeous, better than the samples they showed. The biggest part of that is the light, the backdrop and the lift you gave them with the shadows.
Very nice Sam ! Good thing we don't have to look forward to a barrage of " circle " uploads !! *ducks* LOL Beautiful old coins, like doubloons found on a Spanish galleon....gorgeous !!!
