 I liked the grain the stamped metal between the tines.
Shot in super macro mode with ambient light. Cropped, applied unsharp mask and suppressed the red and green channels to diminish some distracting background colors and emphasize the metalness of the metal.

I like the use of the blue. A very nice image.

Neat concept. I would have liked to have seen more spoon though, not just a reflection of a fork on a shiny object. Your title helped.

The colours work very well, the shininess is excellent ... shame about the reflection in the bottom of the spoon ... doesn't detract much though
