CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE

COMPOSITION
The composition here is strong with the two towers of quarters being the primary item of focus and them being located on the left third. The small stacks also adds to the effect.
TECHNIQUE
While I find the green strip at the bottom a little distracting, I don't think eliminating would serve to help. The focus is fine, but the picture does look a little dark to me. I think some colored lights (blue, etc) shining onto the tower at various points would have made this shot a lot more interesting.
OVERALL EFFECT
I think this is a neat idea, it just needs a little more light to be truly effective. Good work.
Best to you in future challenges.

| That's a lot of quarters! Focus seems pretty good. Image is overly dark, even of this dark subject (title, which seems a bit of a reach). Suggestion - crop the bottom (green) off. 6 Swash |

| It's very dark and without the title I wouldn't know what it was. I don't like the focus on what it's sitting on, but I like the idea. |

Good use of your money. Nice lighting technique, although it leaves everything kind of dark and unfocused. You should have raised your camera up from the table a bit so as to be on "even ground" so to speak.
Personally I find any kind of made-up-photo of the World Trade Centre to be of Bad Taste at this time in World History, but that only in MHO> |

| Why not more light? You have a good idea, but it gets a little lost in the darkness. |

| A little dark, but I see why it has to be. |

| A neat concept... something I like a lot. It seems to be a bit on the dark side, though. |

| Interesting, but too underexposed and that green strip along the bottom is ugly and blurry. |

| I think this shot woudl be a lot stronger with some more light or some creative lighting... it's just to dark overall for my taste... - setzler |

| This really doesn seem very dark - and I like dark shots, and my monitor is set up OK. Not sure that the pile of money is going to be well-recieved though. |
