The photo offers a clear, sharp view of the card, but widespread glare across nearly the entire surface creates blown highlights that erase texture and may limit how accurately the card could be evaluated. Deep shadows or harsh glare make it difficult for our detection tools to distinguish true surface details, so using soft, diffuse light—such as indirect daylight or a lamp bounced off a wall—will produce a much more accurate read. Additionally, photographing the card on a plain, solid surface rather than the textured gray wood surface helps our AI isolate edges and corners cleanly, especially when using a dark background for light-bordered cards or a light background for dark-bordered ones.
