Coin Collecting
A dramatic, low-angle shot of a brass magnifying glass resting on an old cobblestone path, surrounded by scattered stacks of gold and silver world coins and a few fallen flower petals. The coins are intentionally out of focus or partially obscured by the low angle and strong lighting. In the background, the Brandenburg Gate (or similar classical triumphal arch) is visible, bathed in a brilliant setting or rising sun lens flare. The image evokes a sense of historical journey, discovery, and the connection between world coins and monumental history.
