Good idea, good subject, good background.

I wonder how it would have looked to straighten Ying and Yang, and crop it a little tighter.

Now this is a really good concealed/exposed idea. The lighting is good, composition is good. The image seems a bit grainy to me... 7

So? DID YOU WIN????? :) Great idea, exposing the numbers. The cropping is also well done, takes you from one side to the other and helps bring you into the shot. The lighting seems just a bit dark to me and the background, with the speckles, though I'm thinking that is the dust from the ticket maybe, is a bit distracting. I"m starting this one at a 7 but I will be back.

Although the background is a little spotty, I think this is a neat concept. The image REALLY makes the viewer want to know what's behind the areas you haven't yet exposed. Cropping is great, but the thumbs and coin look a little too under-lit (from a photography standpoint). Hope you won! :)

Humourous choice of subject - certainly on challenge.

Image wise the lighting is too flat - perhaps a boost to the brightness/contrats settings could give it that bit of a lift.

Unique and different idea for the challenge. Light is a little soft, but I believe this works pretty well.
