| The subject has been lost in the lack of colour and the dark tones. |

| I know that not every monitor is calibrated the same (and I have gotten mine close to calibrated to the scale that occurs at the bottom of this text box during voting) but on my screen the image appears too dark for me to fully appreciate all the details. You caught a nice gleam on the surface of the blade but the bottom right hand portion of the blade and the handle fade into the black backdrop. Mayhap adding another light source to the right hand side and angled to illuminate the handle and right half of the blade would even out the lighting and show us more detail. Next, I don't think that the B&W composition really complements the overall image. Yes, it does showcase texture and details but sometimes color can add a visual punch to the photo composition. I am guessing by the textures on the apple that it was of the red delicious variety. If correct, then wouldn't that punch of deep red (that would invoke the idea of the color of blood) look better balanced on the sharp edge of the knife? I am thinking that the red would visually pop off the silver of the knife and the black background. Not to mention the red of the apple will just heighten the viewer's awareness of the sharpness of the knife for the color invokes the thought of blood. |

| A much more dark and sinister version. Could use a little more detail but overall I like it. |

| Too dark IMO, and the partial desat was one of the strong features of the original. |

| I don't so much mind that this is in black & white, but it just too dark overall. I'd like to see more detail. |

| The apple looks soft on my monitor, I would like to see a bigger dynamic range if that makes sense... |
