 My mother's old coins collection.

Selected those coins that seemed to have the most character & stuck them on the marble backsplash of the kitchen counter. Used indirect lighting from two different sources, but still wasn't able to light it as evenly as I wanted.

Clever layout. I likethe way Kennedy is smiling all by himself, as if he knows something the others don't.

IMO this would have been a much stronger shot if they were just piled there and not arranged. You could have still kept the same title.

Very humorous. You must be a coin collector. It was creative and from what I can see, the American penny is definitely the clearest.
