 A penny.

I used stacked lenses for the extreme closeup and vignetting effect.

You've probably already heard this.....but why was this not DQ'd when other shots of currency were? I gotta tell you, I really like this picture. I'm just confused on the rules. I guess the lighting and use of dodging/burning saved this one.

Whilst this is a good photo with nice colours, it doesnt really interest me as it's just a flat-on photo of a coin. It does have good lighting and is technically well done however.

Good shot. I don't care for the gradient of lighting, but still good detail.

I traditionally don't like photos of coins. This one, however, is extraordinary, IMO. I really love the dark fade-off at the top and bottom of the coin. That, coupled with the copper color of the penny really create a warm and inviting image. The imperfections in the surface of the coin really add a lot to the overall appeal of the photo for me. Kudos on an excellent photo :) = 10
