It's a very nice shot. But money isn't greed. I think you need a person to show greed.

I thought money was green. I think rutt is right take the same photo with a hand grabbing the money.

I like the hand idea. That would work and you could have all kinds of fun shooting it. If you really nail it, there is a side benefit, this week's FM WA is "Hands". So it's possible to hit a double here. Never been done. Think of the glory.

Like how you compositioned the money in the picture, but beeing used to Euros, the color of the 20 Euros seems odd to me. The 50 Euros are off color too, but it's not so obvious as for the others.
What kind of light did you use for the shot?
I agree with the others involving your hand would nail the photo more on the topic of greed. :wink

Right direction but maybe the money should be in focus?

They also call Canadian money monolopy money but I take it as being smart. I mean our bills are harder to conterfit. I think America's catching on to that the last I heard and they might join the monolopy money club.
Besides that I like the symbolism of the 'caught red handed' but it seems really over contrasted. Is there anyway you can tone it down?

I like it much better, but I have no idea why and what others will think.
Good Job, IMO.

I agree the photo appears oversaturated to me. I like the hand, but if you can try a fist grasping the money too. I'm going to have to go out tonight and look for lust....only for the challenge photo.:rolleyes

excellent progression of creativity here.
i disagree with rutt, money can signify greed.
but - it *will* be a better shot with a hand in in it ..
you're almost there - keep trying!
