Thanks, Michael. The original version had slightly increased saturation and I felt that it needed even more. I did even more saturation here. The color of money is funky and I wanted an extreme version of it for this photo. I also increased the USM mask.

Talk about pushing into new territory for PP. I've learned a lot in this challenge from this one photo!

That did the trick, Pops. Dunno if you tweaked color in this version, but it seems even more alive and vivid in this version. Very nice. -Michael

Thanks everyone.

Matt & Michael - Yes I did this on an as posted size and I agree with you on the jaggies/laddering effect. So I reworked it at 3 times the size and after all the PP I resized it for posting. I also made a few other little changes that I thought it needed.

You really did PP on this? Are you sure? :)
Great idea, nicely done.

Regarding the ladder effect on the lettering. Did you do the PP on a small version of the image and do a limited resizing? Anti-aliasing lettering? Matt

PS: the grey of the gallery is slightly different from your background... :-P

Excellent! The colors through the letters are great.

Great idea and wonderful colors, Pops. The jaggies on the lettering does bother me a bit, but I rarely work with text and don't have any ideas on how to solve it. -Michael
