I pick this all the time for pic your fav. I might as well comment on it. this is a damn good photo too. its hard to get such a shiny stricking gold color. youve done it wonderfully and it really pops among the background and hand color. also fits the feel of the movie with the tight grasp and blurred background as if he may already be running home with it. beautiful shot!

Ugh, I just noticed how relatively low this placed. Really should have done better than this. Sweet idea, and well taken. Silly voters. I gave it a nine during the challenge BTW.

it's clever and creative but the editing and background look wonky, I mean shonky

I don't like how the ticket looks golden because it doesn't look golden, just overprocessed.

Cool concept. The editing is heavy but it gives it style although I wish the hand was a bit brighter and also had better skin tone.
