Great reflections - did you try different angles with this? I'm not sure this one would work best, but there are a lot of options open with this shot, nice work. -8-

Very nice use of light and DOF. Without the title is difficult to tell it meets the challenge.

Beautiful graphic composition. I'm having trouble with everyone arguing about "what irony IS" so I'm judging this time simply on the technical photography and this is definitly a 10. I'm inspired to do something like it!

Nice shot, the forks are set up so it's difficult to tell where one ends and another starts. Good visual impact.

I like the reflections - very abstract composition. Interesting. I'c crop a bit off the top.

nice reference to alianis moresette, thought that might come up. an excellent job at it too, lovely composition - reminds one of the crown that forms with liqid driping into liquid.

Love the composition and B & W. Well done It is difficult to see where one fork ends and the next starts.

Very nice execution here, nice dof, crop and b/w. Reflection on the table (?) is very nice as well. Only thing wrong here is that this doesnt meet the challenge. (That whole Alanis Morrisette song was a misunderstanding of the term irony) 7
