 Ever since the 9/11 thing with the 5 10 20 50 and 100 dollar bill I have been folding money for hidden messages, this one made me smile even though its sad and true.

Of course, as soon as I saw this photo I had to pull out a bill and try it. Nice closeup - I think I would have tried to figure out a way to hold the bill in place without those out-of-focus fingers at the edges (scotch tape on the back of the surfaces, for instance).

Isn't it interesting that for irony to be most effective it has to contain an element of truth.

A bit more contrast would have helped. I suppose this fits the challenge a bit.

Irony? Not to me, but I do get the humor and I do applaud your creativity. This was not an easy challenge. You did okay.

I had to look at it for a while to see what you meant. I would have tried to photograph it without the fingers. Good idea though.
