Image is a bit flat for my taste, a boost in the contrast here would have improved my score.

this is a fairly obvious (and clichéd) shot, could be made more exciting with e.g. nice lighting or Macro lens, interesting arrangement of the coins...

Very literal interpretation of the title of the song. Unfortunately this isn't a very interesting image to look at. It looks as if you tossed some money on a table and snapped off a quick shot.

Things that might make it better? Hard to say. Certainly adding any other element that would inject some action into the shot would be something to consider. The coins dropping into a hand, a shot of someone pulling the dollar out of a wallet or purse. The lighting here is also pretty touch. Looks like it was shot under a table lamp. Windows make for great lighting even on overcast days. Nice light coming from the side through a window, catching the coins as they fall into an outstretched palm - that might make for a well lit, interesting photo that better captured the theme of greed and avarice that Money was about.

Nice attempt. Good luck!

4 the only interesting thing about this photo is the depth of field, which doesn´t say much about the quality. not only that this is quite a boring photo of some money (what´s the point of this money being there? where did it come from? whose is it? - questions i´m not interested at all finding the answers), but even technically this photo leaves to be desired. i guess a way to improve it would be playing with colour and saturation, or having a less uniform and dull lightning (an idea: light only the face, while the rest of the money would be noticed, but still be in the dark). i wish you luck, because this is one of the photos that got the smallest score from me.

I am sure you could have done more with this, maybe more blured background.

Don't take this horribly, but this is just too literal an interpretation for me. .. has a snapshot feel too.

Mmm not really that interesting, little too dark. Anyone can snap a picture of money, needs to be made exciting in some way.

Would have been more effective with newer, crisper money, IMO.

I think the composition is poor, sorry. It doesn't provoke any emotions for me, it's just some change on a table.
