You play for 'big' stakes Pete... remind me never to challenge you to a game... lol
Interesting comments, I think I would prefer the sharp focus to be on the coins and the rest slightly more subtle, legible but not the main subject. Thats just my two peneth worth and we all have our personal preference.
Pete, I agree with Lydia re the dof. However, for the effect you are looking for you could try reducing the DOF so the RF and £50 is sharp, but foreground and background blurred. I think that would work. Regards, Naj.

Thank you all for your comments.
Victor the two stacks are £1 coins, perfect size!
Yuvraj/Lydia, my first attempt was to focus on the coins but this really didnt work. I then introduced more chips and deliberately wanted the £50 notes and Royal Flush to take centre stage as this would reap more money for the stack. Also thought much more over f11 would have too much in focus and then look a bit flat, Im open for comments on this. Thanks again PeteV.
