Good work. The reflection in the bowl adds another element.

Careful not to cut yourself! The white balance is a little off, try a tungsten setting if your camera has one.

well, you do get the prize for most dramatic title this week! you have complied with the challenge, so no problems there. It oculd do with some improvement in the white balance department; it has this light brown sheen over it which gives a false impression of colours - something which can easily be fixed post processing. a lot of the bottom half of the picture is a bit unnecessary; having the principal subject in the top half rarely looks right i found, and by cropping say 5-10mm below the bottom edge of the cucumber might give a more balanced composition. 4.

Different and better for being so. I have seen some cooks cut cukes razor thin with a very fast chopping motion. You captured the speed in this one.
