Ever had a close look at money?

I noticed these marks on note a while ago but only after seeing Hobbes' thread could I be bothered to take some shots. They're only quick ones. I may take some better ones at some point.

The main image is a close-up of the money and the note itself is the little picture. The red dot shows where the close-up was taken.

In the preview window I've noticed the £10 and £20 don't have dots. They're all from the bottom right just like the £5.

Yup. Coins and stamps to. There was a time when every time you used a stamp you had the give the queen a good tonguing round the back.

Hmmm... Did I go too far there. :scratch:

Cool stuff! Makes me want to do some reverse-lens macro on our moolah. Now I just have to get some... :LOL:

Thanks for looking.

These are crops and resizes from pictures taken with a reversed 50mm lens and the lens camera side not fully zoomed. When I fully zoom (not even counting the digital which makes a huge! difference) with a 28mm reversed you get a lot closer. So close in fact that it becomes pretty much pointless. And it's all held together by two elastic bands. :lol:

Charles Darwin is not a random guy. He is the theorist of evolution.
