This is a very unique and pretty shot. I too think it should've placed much better then it did. You have some very nice shots, so I woulnd't get too down about it.
BTW, your profile shot is kinda creepy... in a cool way of course. :-)
Verrrry nice! It makes me wonder how you made the background blurry. And also very grainy. But the fork is sharp as a tack, and smooth and clean, no grain. Perhaps the background was printed out that way? However it's done, I like the lighting and the background, even though it puzzles me how it was done. Nice choice of colors.
the side-lighting and shadow really bring this fork to the top of the utensils submissions. The unusual framing guides the eye and really gives an otherwise good photo real punch - an OOF foreground that really works. [9]
I can see this hanging in a gallery, but with a real fork, and a wee halogen light providing the shadow. You've caught the essence of a whole generation of modern art.. Perfect 1/3rds composition to boot. :-).
Beautiful composition. I dont know what background you used but it is spectacular. The background minus the fork would make a beautiful abstract piece of art in and of itself.

Very unique framing. Several photos I've seen so far have an interesting frame but this one is the most interesting yet. I think the natural compliment to the frame would have been to colorize the fork in a complimentary or contrasting color. Very creative effort.
