They are great for tipping, but hard to find.

Superb contrast. The composition is a little weak though... might be interesting to shoot the dollar bills on an angle, with unfocused dishes and glasses in the background, to strengthen the restaurant/tipping concept? Just a thought. :)

The lighting seems a little harsh, but I love the color work.

Bankrupted!!!

personally, I think a little deeper depth of field would work better here, to get the person completely in focus. Also, this isn't really that important, but a more interesting background might help strengthen the concept. Nice even lighting though!

Just a tad more contrast maybe - but this is great!

I personally might have chosen a different background color - perhaps a neutral red or copper color - something that would compliment the beautiful colors of the leaf. But great lighting and focus.

Great lighting and color. You've made everything look nice and sparkly. My only suggestion - and this is totally personal, maybe I'm nitpicking here - would be to crop a little of the right and left. Give the impression that there's a long line of gold spread out, instead of just a little pile. Just a thought... Nice image.

Coins for Charon

Well... here's my two cents...:)
I'm not sure I like the composition. It's a little akward, and when I first opened the thumbnail, it took me a a sec to figure it out. Alright, it was just a second, but I think instant impact is more memorable, and the subject certainly has the potential to really impact. Also, the contrast doesn't look quite right. highlights that should be white are a muted gray, giving the image a sort of dull quality. However, the actual lighting set-up looks and works perfectly, and the subject - coins in place of eyes - is extremely intriguing and captivating. Very neat! :)

The bright colors and high contrast are a little too strong here in my opinion. I would also suggest trying a different composition.
