 I know it's silly...but I couldn't resist the title!
Taken outdoors, worried about the strong shine on the fork, cropped, resized, sepia, hue, lighting/exposure, reduce noise, usm, edge.

I just love the play on words! Good in Sepia. I like the battered & twisted condition the fork is in!

Nice use of sepia to give it that aged look

nice shot and good processing .... the sepia toning goes perfectly with the torned fork ... just that the title could have been more interesting ...
But good overall...

Great job. I thought about this as well but was afraid the fork would be too small. You pretty much nailed it. Great perspective. One of my top ten.
