[meteorite-list] photographing irons
Normally I do that but it doesn't work well on end cuts _ Laurence Garvie lgarvie at cox.net Tue Oct 9 01:26:47 EDT 2007 Regarding photographing irons - I have had good success scanning them on a flatbed scanner. I typically use 1200 dpi and color. Note, this can produce a large file. I'll try and send a link to an image tomorrow.

Does anyone know what these are, you can see a lot of them in this 354 gram slice: http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p298/BobaDebt/Uruacu/ 354grSlice1.jpg Does anyone have any tips on photographing this material. It doesn't have a lot of contrast but the etch looks 1000% better then what this image shows: http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p298/BobaDebt/Uruacu/ 354grSlice2.jpg I have tried shooting it from various angles, with and with out flash, inside, outside, nothing seems to really capture the look of the etch Speaking of the etch, does anyone have any ideas on how to get more contrast, I have tried a variety of Nitric Acid and Ferric Chloride Solutions and I have even tried various combination of both. If anyone can offer any help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -- __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
