Ya, the first set is a little overprocessed and the plating has lost it's polished look... picked up a bead-blasted appearance.
The 2nd set retains the polished look better, but the purplish shadow makes it look blown out.
Those look really nice.
Looking good! I do see the slight bit of purple fringing in the corners, could be the image compression, but if you are seeing it on the original it could just be from your lens. I find that when I go to snap pics with my phone that there is usually finger prints and oil on the lens from being used as a phone.
I think the coolest part of this thread has been watching you go from "I take pics with my iphone outside and they look good, but I want them to look good inside for cheap." To "I just built my first light box and am buyin more stuff to make it better, and might get a real camera too." Just seeing your excitement as you begin to understand what the lighting is doing and how to conrol it make me happy.
If you do decide to get into photography, just don't ever let this enthusiam go. If you get in a rut, just remember how trying something new led to experimentation and excitement! Oh, and good results too.
Cheers!
