I went to a motor show in Amsterdam this week and took a fair amount of pictures. Many of them weren't good enough for neither this site nor the challenge though. This one was one of the exceptions.
I think it represents money quite well: a lot of glistering cause by the excessive amount of chrome of this very expensive Harley Davidson (€42.000,-) in combination with the yellowish colours brings money in my mind. If this is also the case with the voters of this site? I guess I have to wait and see :D.
As this shot was taken indoors and I don't like to use the flash, I brought my 50mm F/1.8 with me. Even with the aperture at f/3.5 I still had to use ISO800 for this shot. This caused a fair amount of noise, but it was nothing NeatImage couldn't remove. I changed the contrast and saturation to get a more expensive look (in particular I introduced more yellow and red in the photo) and added a slight blur.

I don't associate motorbikes with money. Yes, I realise that the Sunday rider is ususally monied but I have enough of an image of Hell's Angels types. Image is nice albeit a little soft.
