I will probably get hammered for this one. I wanted and entry that would get more comments than my others. My score is usually in the 5 range(or lower) and I thought that I would just have fun and enter something silly. This is no ribbon winner but I think that it's funny. You should have seen the outtakes! Forks are not good models, they are very needy and stuck-up. Finally I just snapped a shot as the Fork was tired of the photo shoot and chose this shot.

Composition:
The composition of this shot is nice. I like that the subject "the moody fork" is not centered.
Background/ Foreground
I like the gray background on the left but the it appears a tad blown out on the right. Still over all does not distract from the fork.
There does appear to be a smudge on the lower right.
Camera Work:
Focus is great. Lighting works. I would love to see some of the outtakes because I think other angles would be interesting.
It is very hard to shoot metal with out getting glare and you only have a very small amount on the edge of the fork.
I have invested in a soft box and that really makes a difference when shooting reflective ojects.
You do amazing work with your Kodak camera. I can only imagine what you could do with a Nikon or a Cannon. (I have to be fair, even if I love my Nikon)

My Opinion:
I love shots that give some insight to the photographer and you have a wonderful sense of humor. You take pictures that please you and that is what will set you apart from other photographers. In looking at your other pictues I really like that your children are a part of your art, and seem to enjoy it with you. Even if you cover their face in sugar. =)
You have a natural eye so keep shooting and sharing your work with us.
