Image is out of focus, seems slightly posterized, and has dark shadows that drop off too severely into black. The reflected highlight on the knife is also very harsh, and seems blown. The colors on the blade are somewhat pretty, but the colors on the handle are very odd, and the green at the left looks like fungus. Try a different angle to avoid the reflection, which is causing the extreme dynamic range hurting this image in both directions. If the title had been about the reflected light, drawing the interest to the colors, the image might have been more interesting, but as it is, it isn't really memorable, and the light just looks like an artifact of the reflection error. An apple and a knife on a counter alone isn't a very interesting image.
