 I didn't really set this up- it just happened. Its got a knife, which means I kill and eat babies, so I don't expect to do great- but I would appreciate any input.

I like the bokeh, but my reading of the entire scene is a bit on the bleak side. It's menacing with that knife on the wall/post.

Nice idea - just don't center everything quite so much.

Good thinking although a lighter coloured knife might have a better impact as it seems to get lost in the background too much.

The blade blends into the background too much.

This one is cut to close, I would have liked to see the end of the knife.

Looks like some bokeh spots might be forming in the background. I think the photographing is great, I personally don't understand the message behind the photo, but I would never take off points for that. Good Job.

You can see that you achieved the "Bokeh" in the background.....
