I hope the picture meets the challenge, found the challenge details hard to understand. The idea of this picture is "someone finds golden coins while planting flowers" I covered the dinnertable whit plastic and earth that you use for potplants, used a small lamp. The coins are made of chocolate. I cropped a little, adjusted the colours only a little bit and used USM.

I like the colors (what great soil you have!) - the color of the flowers, the trowel and the coins. The mixure of textures is also nice, the softness of the leaves, the matte finish of the flowerpot and the shininess of the coins. I would have prefered a slightly closer cropping and more detail on the coins, perhaps burying some of them more in the dirt and some more dirty (they would be if they were in the ground.)
The idea is fine but maybe not very original. This one seem thou pretty well performed, better than most other dealing with similar subject in this challenge.
