Actually, the correct quote is 'Greed is the root of all evil'.... not money.

Thanks for pointing it out... I was thinking of the lyrics to Pink Floyd's 'Money'.

interesting coins....
i think not having enough money is more evil! hehehe

Hi Martin! It is indeed the root of all evil. Nice close-up here!

Välkommen till caedes =)

Ah yes...the love of money is the root of all evil! Wonderfully taken shot...the angle and lighting are spot on perfect! Great and unique capture!!

Since you show me the money, I feel you deserve some critique at least;-) So technically, I think a bit more depth would be good to get that first coin in focus. Never mind the rest...but I can be shallow at times. Artistically, I like it all:-)

I agree with you Darryl, the "main" coin is a tad soft on the edges...
Maybe I should retry it using a tripod and a smaller aperture. I took this one freehand, so it was quite hard to get it right. Thanks for the critique!

I like it Martin...money can be a blessing or a curse depending on how you use it. I like this but how about trying it against a different background...something that will show the coins off better, I find the pattern to be distracting...just a thought...maybe it's just me.

Hi Carrie, and thanks for your comment.. Actually the colored background are paper bills.

And that it is! This is a fantastic closeup, great clarity displayed and nice arrangement with the coins. I really like this, unique picture. Good job!
