I started to do a shot very similar to this, but was too lazy to go outside and get a rock. hahah
Photographically, I think your shot comes up a little short because it is so "flat." A lower perspective and filling the frame more with the rock and scissors would have really helped, I think. Wrinkling the paper adds interest and texture to it, but it is composed in such a way to look "static." I find my eyes pulled to the outside black border, away from the subject.
This shot has a lot of potential, I think. Perhaps composing it so that the scissors are closer to the rock, the paper provides the entire background, and the whole thing is more vertical than horizontal would ahve really made it pop. Of course, it is just my opinion, so ymmv. Good luck.
wow! i though i was the only one who would of thought of this combination, it would have turned out better if you put them in some sort of heirarchy, paper above the rocks, rock looming above scissors but yours is composed well nonetheless.
Original idea. This picture has potential. It seems a little flat. Maybe a different camera angle or tweaking the set up would have improved the final image. Just my opinion. :)
