hope you did not have to sacrifice more than one one-dollar bill (it surely looks real) for the shot.
I would have appreciated your attention to details, if you had made sure to hide the matchstick. overall, i like this.

very nice origami work and pleasing composition. just a little dark for my taste. not a big deal though.

i hope you did this with "fake" money. excellent concept and very nice composition. i like the color processing but you will get mixed reaction from voters on that part for sure. my only concern with this image is a little overexposed bills in the foreground.
in any case, this should place high. over all very good work. good luck.

Stunning!
After noticing the center of ripples...it seems like you might have supported the coin on something so that it stays at the top of the water surface. And then used droplets to create ripples.
In any case, this is one of the bests in the show and should place high.
