The Affluence Challenge description says, "The opposite of the poverty challenge. Knock us out with your representation of MATERIAL WEALTH." This is a cut and paste message that I will comment on all submissions that do not seem to suit the topic of the challenge. Take note I understand this maybe just my personal opinion, and as such I only deducted 1 point from my original vote.

To the disinterested observer, there doesn't seem to be a direct link to the challenge theme.

Nice scales. Just enough color to keep the image from being monochrome.

Very unusual. One can only speculate the true nature of this shot. I feel however that due to the abstract nature of this shot it need to fill more of the frame to keep it interesting. If the scales had spread more into the black area around this shot. I think I would have liked it a bit more.

not enough context. Don't worry, I've made this comment on a lot of the pics. Would you hang this on your wall?

Hummm, I'm guessing silver since there doesn't seem to be any overlap or gaps between the spots...probably way off though.

Good luck
