Ok. Probably a love it/hate it photo. A near high-key attempt here, only because after taking the shot did I realize I really didn't like the light-blue background I used. Too tired/lazy to switch out the color and thought the bank would get lost on pure white. Biggest debate was the consideration of lightening the black hole in the bottom of the bank via post-processing.
Should be enjoyable to watch the comments come in on this if nothing else. :D

Ok, THIS looks like something someone could be procrastinating about! I like it very much! Well illustrated, and the high key approach makes it very appealing. ANd how'd you get that dollar bill to look like it was in motion :) My highest rated photo so far!
