Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Affluence (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 135mm f/2.8 Soft Focus
Location: In my theatre room cum studio
Date: Aug 1, 2005
Aperture: f/11
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/60
Galleries: Humorous
Date Uploaded: Aug 1, 2005

 Not much in my house could convey 'Affluence' very well unless you take in the whole lot and I couldn't be bothered going looking for flash cars, boats or houses etc! So, I came up with this idea! I just downloaded an image of a $20 note and printed it to size multiple times in strips! Wrapped it around a toilet roll and 'Presto'!

A single halogen light reflected off a silver umbrella left and above! Silver reflector on the right on black card! Then cropped, resized, a little neat image and USM! Saved for web.

rather gross, but it nails the challenge and is well thought out and executed. Looks like a ribbon to me, ( not brown). If your recived comments on this challenge are like mine some might not like the fact that the whole subject is not in sharp focus and will assume you did that my mistake rather than by choice, I rather like your choice to allow the front of the focal plane to soften.

You know, I had a bet with myself that we would see money toliet paper in this challenge and here it is. By the way, I won the bet :-) You know, I would have liked to see the roll a little closer up I think. Other than that, technically this picture is well done IMO.

Funny... I was going to do something very similar, except I couldnt because I was on vacation!!! The only different thing was, I was going to cash in a 100 dollar bill for ones, so the whole roll would be out of money, and then use the 20's for just the outside, here, you can see the TP, so it kinda draws back from the overall aspect.

Way to be creative you made me laugh! Shot is clean good DOF, one little hot spot on the top of the roll but over all I love it.
