Photo is technically well done. Good DOF, focus, lighting and such. The background has nice green colors. Definately fits the challenge. The only thing that I'm counting down for is that a picture a wooden shark just doesn't interest me very much. 5
As corny as this could be it's actually quite clever. The tones of the background are a nice backdrop to the detailed rich dark tones and grain of the wood. The lighting is nicely done as well. I had to laugh though - it was a fun diversion from the seriousness of most of the others.
