Aside from blue the white balance, they look good for me

I like them. You seem to have a good eye for composition. As Techuser mentions the white balance is off a bit. This can be adjusted after the fact post processing. Then sometimes leaving the color tint (or adding it) can add some drama to images as well. Anyway, take pic's you like. There will always be some that may not care for the style of shooting you like...that doesn't mean the images are less than ideal.

I like the first failed pic, great compose!

I am a new user of the S5 and can not get the white balance set correctly. I collect coins and many are brilliantly reflective. I posted above (hopefully) 2 photos. One is a silver coin and the bad color can be seen. The other is a gold coin and other than it being a little to dark the color is very close. Any tips for me on getting my white balance correct?
ps: my lighting I use is halogen table lamps.

maybeeee.......Try adjusting the source lighting?
Try this link http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=281524&highlight=light+box for an idea or scan through the small lighting section for more ideas.

Good luck!

[newbiecollector]

Thanks a lot for the link. I sure can use all the help I can get

[newbiecollector]

I just went to your link.....verryyyyy impressive.

I am only using small table lamps, 2 of them, which have a small halogen light bulb.

Thanks again

[newbiecollector]

Thanks again all. This is what a BU silver coin should look like in a correct photo. I took this with my old Nikon cool pix 995
