Nice idea, but the background is too cluttered; distracts and leads to a "snapshottish" feel. Some moody lighting would be good, too, rather than straight natural light.
I think some movement in the knife hand would be appropriate here, since the water spray seems to indicate it's not a super-fast shutter. The cropping is a bit too close on top and maybe left. The hanger hooks and birdhouse are a bit distracting.
Cute, but it does look a little too staged (At least I hope it is). I also think there is too much clutter in the background, and the perspective of the background makes me dizzy. Maybe making the background a little less in focus would help.....
I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......
EEEEEK!
definitely an interesting take on this challenge
however i find the background to be extremely distracting. there is too much going on with all the houses and trees and pot plants, etc... it takes away from the subject of the photo.
