Last minute ideas never work but here goes.....

About what I expected.....

FYI...this wasn't my credit card statement. I was attempting to portray "a more modern pain" that most people can relate to in these days where debt is considered a normal part of life.

Hey, I can relate!. Nice idea. Might have been better in color

Whoa, I hope that is not YOUR balance. Maybe would be better if the focused area was moved up more towards the center. A little too much blurry space on the top, but don't get me wrong, a very good picture (8)

Ouch. I'd call that an everlasting headache (for the next seven years, anyway). Macro did a lot for this shot!

I think this shot would be a lot better with the whole credit card in full view and numbers visible. ;) Nice shot.

haha, the funny thing is that if you actually have the capacity to charge that on your credit card, then paying that off probably isn't too painful :-p
