Just a spur of the moment shot, but I want to enter every contest that I can! I love the comments and critiques. They just make me smarter, and more aware. I just played with the levels, made it monochrome, and added a little noise and usm. Oh yeah, my first time trying a border too!

You can't please all of the people all of the time here...but this was an awesome image and should have placed higher. The grain works well, the composition is good, and the B&W is perfect for the shot. :o)

too grainy

A little noisy for my taste, but an interesting photo nonetheless

Could be more sharp. Also, don't feel the b/w adds to the image.

Outstanding idea, composition, and crop. I like the BW choice too, but I think the graininess is going to work against this image. I'd like to see it done with a bit more sharpness and texture (hands are great, IMHO), and the coins work well, but again, too grainy.

The graininess is what makes this shot; good choice!

If this picture were not so grainy I would have voted it high. I love the content and layout of the picture more than any other I have seen so far, and I have been through at least half of the images to this point.

I assume the noisiness is intentional. Don't like the frame I'm afraid.

Coins. Nice shot. However I dont see everyday objects arranged in an interesting composition here.

the grainy texture works well here

Really nice grain
