Nice idea, great capture of motion. Composition is good but imo it needs a bit more contrast. The shadow from on-camera flash is distracting. Can you try moving farther away from the background to see if that's better?

Good idea, picture could be clearer. I don't think you needed the shadow.

A bit too overexposed. Interesting concept.

This is a little grainy. Beyond that, I like the shot. Perhaps a darker or black background along with a polished coin would make this image pop more and allow you get a crisper image cutting out some of the noise.

good idea. I think though I would crop out some of the top. also a different color for background. everything is close colors, kind of washes it all out. something to add contrast to your subject.

Too bright- try to tone down your lighting a little. Good creative idea, but you caught the coin on the horizon. Good luck in the challenge.

Why didn't the coin cast a shadow?

The flash shadow on the wall is too distracting, you need to either sofyen the lighting or better still user a darker ackground.

Nice concept but not to well executed, sorry.
