 I am almost happy with this. The DOF is so close to what I wanted, all of the £5 in focus would have been perfect! But hey, it's only Day 2! :o)

I am useless at photoshop so my workflow is fairly simple. Convert from RAW, very slight crop to remove some white from left handside, adjusted contrast, saturation and curves. That's it

I like your British money - it's so colourful! You did good with the DOF. Penny for Day 1 and pound bills for Day 2... I wonder what you'll come up with for tomorrow :)

I think this works well. The thing about macro is you can take the most mundane objects and make them half way interesting!

Cool shot, and nice "rich" colors : )
I also like the way the DOF turned out for this shot.

Love the colors. It always amazes me how boring the colors of US bills are compared to other currency :(

The DOF and the focus works so well in this fine capture. I like the balance between the two. The soft colors also make this a very pleasing image to the eye.....

Thanks for sharing it with us.....

Are you enjoying your new camera and lenses.

I really like the dof & progression upward in the money value ! Our dollars are boring compared to these :)

You really made a leap from a pence to pound notes. I like your use of DOF to get what you are looking for. The colors are wonderful. I am concerned you will run out of money to photograph before the end of the week. lol!

This is a nice montage. It looks like you can feel the texture of the printing on the digital image. Very nice.
