I am generally not a fan of motion blur photos, but in this case I'll make an exception. Nice composition, color, and rendering of the theme.

This is very cool, but seems a bit dark. For me, more contrast would enhance the excellent effect.

Great idea very well executed. My favorite of the challenge so far. Wish the shadow on the sitting nickel wasn't quite so dark so that you could see the edge all the way around.

Indepth! I like the concept of this shot. Nice technical. this is, to me, one of those "I wonder how you did it?" shots.

Brillinat stuff. I really like submissions which are out of the ordinary and this is now one of my favourites of the challenge. Unfortunately i dont think its a crowd pleaser.

I can see what's going on, but i think there was just a bit too much exposure, and the spinning coin has no real definition… it does give the impression that the stationary coin is having a bit of a daydream (am I right?) but it just doesn't look right overall… The background is too plain / black / without form as well. I like the concept though, and it does fit the challenge… erm, 4.
