[QUOTE="Roaring20s, post: 3729458, member: 17270"]A bit more on that theme... Shoot a couple of more photos. If you can adjust the brightness/ darkness, make it a bit darker. Try direct sun and incandescent light sources. Avoid glare. Find the best angles that brings out what you need to see. You may need more than just one angle. These images can be adjusted in photoshop-like program and some of the details may be enhanceable. James.
