Challenge: The Future (Classic Editing*)
Camera: Nikon Coolpix 5700
Location: Washington DC and College Station, TX
Date: Aug 2, 2003
Aperture: 2.5
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/40
Galleries: Humorous, Still Life
Date Uploaded: Aug 2, 2003

 This is a pic of a real $100,000 bill (gold certificate, actually) that is on display in the Smithsonian museum in Washington DC. I took this when I was there a couple of months ago.

I duped it, arranged the five layers in the fan shape, and put a slight drop shadow on each to give a hint of depth to the stack. I then shot a pic of my car keys and overlayed them for a sense of casualness to the half mil.

Hopefully this is my future!!

Darned inflation! Nice shot though. Composition is strong.

Inflation as the future... Interesting perspective. Nice composition. I'm really enjoying seeing all of the ideas people had that I never would have thought of. 7

Good idea, I would have given a higher score if I could read more of the print. Yes I had my glasses on.

Great photo, exceptional clarity -- good composition. Excellent photo. However, I don't see this as the future. I don't see it fiting clearly into this challenge, but I give you a 7 for the quality.
