I love that you took a different point of view regarding the money theme. Finding a family picture within the bills is a nice change from the many shots showing money found in books or gardening or whatever. Not only is the theme nice, but I also like the quality of the photo itself. The composition, depth of field, sepia, lighting...all very nice. One of my favorites.

IMHO the bottom lines are not needed elements and detract from the true subject of the shot. Without them you have a much cleaner and more impactful composition!

Meets the challenge but subject is so small, or there's too much negative space, so in the end it doesn't work for me. For me, mind you.

The inclusion of the two people really makes this work since there would be no sense of scale or drama without them. I like your choice to go for high contrast black and white.
