Very nicely done!

No need to worry on the titles. While they are both appropriate, the hustler is just fine - as a literal use of the title and in relation to the film's subject matter. The setup of the shot is excellent, and the OOF background of the ringed finger chalking up the stick really impart the feeling of a hustle going down. Fast Eddie lives on!

Thanks Franky! Funny you should mention The Colour of Money, when I set up the shot I had the intention of doing it for the title The Hustler but then when I loaded it up onto my mac, my very first impression was The Colour of Money because of well.....the colour of the money! But The Hustler is older so I went with that instead. Is it possible to enter 2 titles for 1 picture?

Wonderful shot! I had been thinking about a shot for "The Color of Money" and this one hits of course both at a time. You should try to add this title to get double bonus points. ;-)))

Very cool shot - I love the colors, DOF and sharp focus on the money!

Much Thanks for your kinds words Ahmed, Tabrizi and Martin.

The new $50 bill was reissued in 2004, I believe it was the last one of 5 to be redesigned.

Excellent work with depth of field! Nice title choice (ps - since when did they redesign the Canadian $50 bills?)!
