I like this idea. It has a nice reflection, composition, and perspective. The quality seems to have suffered some. It's noisy/grainy, and the knife has a bit of a halo. What sort of post processing did you do? Maybe it's a compression issue. I dunno, but if you fix the technical issues it'd probably score much higher. Love the colors. ~indi

Well, I could complain about the DOF, but I honestly think that the focus is in the right place. The knife is nice and sharp. No pun intended. I don't particularity like the peppers, but those can be picked off. :) The angle and framing are perfect. I really like the closeness involved in this shot. The background was a good choice, It really lets the pizza stand out in it's surroundings. The colors are great, and the reflection is clear and obvious. My favorite part of the reflction is the olive. I like how you happened to get the entire olive in the reflection on the knife. I also like how the reflection in the bottom half of the knife is soft, and in the top of the knife it is nice and crisp. Really great composition here. This is a very appealing photo. Great job, and good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~
