The idea is clever. The crisp focus is very nicely done. I like seeing the color of the sky and the pattern of the iris in the eye. The pink tone, however, is overwhelming. You might have considered desaturating red and magenta a little bit in post processing.

It's a quibble, but I think the concept would be much stronger if the dollar sign were not backwards. This could have been done with some forethought. On the other hand, It is not clear to me that the photo would suffere from wholesale left-to-right reversal. Still, quite a nice effort.

If fthat dollar sign was reversed, you would land a ribbon.

This is a very cool shot, but I can see the person holding the dollar sign, and if you could have gotten so the dollar sign wasn't reversed in the eye, I would have liked it more.

Nice effect. Would have been stronger if the $ was facing in the right direction.

Awesome photo!

Now, this is very creative, although, you can tell that someone is holding the $ sign poster. The edges are kind of distracting. Also, it appears over-saturated especially the red.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This image is too pink and unnatural looking to me. I don't like the reflection in the pupil and it doesn't tie into the subject of affluence in my opinion,
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/03/2005 12:53:53 AM
Thanks for the originality and not a diamond or a red car!!! Nice macro. I might desat the red so the skintones aren't so pink, but otherwise, excellent.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/03/2005 12:52:16 AM
i like the idea-the hand holding the $ sign is a little distracting though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/03/2005 12:43:19 AM
how does this display affluence? it shows the sign of currency, but no display of material wealth here. technically and creativity is good tho.
