Great idea, but it's a bit dark so it's hard to see the blood

Love the mood of this picture. It's odd because I keep bouncing back and forth about wanting to see more of the knife and not. But none-the-less, the lighting works for me. Great focus and color too boot. 7

Lighitng is very harsh creating very dark shadows. IMO, Second source of light or reflector on the left would have helped here.

Wow, I don't know if I'll ever nonchalantly bite into apple again. =) Good dramatic lighting. I'd like to see more of the back side of the knife though. Also, it looks like the knife is upside down?

I like the idea and I like the single light source approach... however, I think if the light diffused over the surface to softer the shadows a bit, I might enjoy this better...
