the subjet should be steady in sharp focus to do the trick IMHO

I'm sure you have heard this but we can see a string...the concept is also a little bit overdone but good try.

Very creative idea... I think a different background would make this an excellent shot. And a very minor thing... but the person's reflection in the middle spoon bothers me a little.

Great concept perhaps a simpler composure would not distract as much ... and you then say 'There is no backdrop..."

Am I suppose to see the string? That takes away from the how did he do it element, and that was the only thing you had going in this picture.

At least clone out the string so we could kind of believe it.

This is out of focus, I don't like the background and I can see the string attached to the spoon.
