The level of creativity and imagination on this forum never ceases to amaze me. This shot is one of the reasons why.

Thanks for the comments! Mike, I collected coins when I was a kid, and this one is really from 1857.

Neat image, Katherine. Quite an imaginative take on our theme. I admire your photographic skills and your creativity. Your attention to detail is wonderful. I like how both the flipped coin and the stationary coin have the eagle image showing.---Deb

As Mike noted, Katherine, a really clever idea to use a coin with a flying-eagle. Great detail in the one and sense of motion in the other. I also like your background which enhances the main subject(s). Bev

Good idea and well executed, Katherine...nicely set against a blurry sky background. Good sense of motion in that "flip of the coin" ...very nice detail/clarity in your foreground subject. It's also really neat & appropriate that the design embossed on the facing is a flying eagle. Is that coin really dated 1857? Are you a collector? Well done, Katherine. MFC
