 I was going for humor. I would've rather have a square instead of a rectangular tissue box, but I didn't have time to buy one. I also think the flowers on the box is distracting. I would have gotten a plainer one, but same excuse.

I'm thinking my style is out of focus areas.

Awesome idea. I like the tone the blue print on the box adds to the image, wish I would have voted on this challenge. Really like this.

Very clever! If the "used" bills were completely in focus, this would be the one to beat!

I get it, LOL:)

Very creative title and image. I have to mark it down a bit though simply because the challenge asks asks for a demonstration of "material wealth" and you showed bills....the money itself....material wealth is what money can buy! Great shot though.

too much of the shot is out of focus, fine idea but if you had pulled the wadded cash forward and gotten it all in focus and bigger in the image, and the box was further back and as soft as it is now, but smaller, you would have had a contender. great idea and title.

Took a second to recognize the bg as a kleenex box, may a little more dof would have helped. Great idea!

Very creative. If the tissue box had been in better focus, I would have scored a touch higher. 7

creative but too out of focus to be appreciated.

Very creative and a good take on the challenge. Composition and lighting are good. I'm not finding a point of focus, though.

cute idea, but I'd prefer it all in focus...

Quite catchy phrase here. Now the question is, why are they crumpled Washingtons when the box contains a Lincoln? Great DOF.
