What a brutal, fiendish murder!

I'd prefer the axe to be in focus as well, but the depth of field wasn't big enough.

Crop, resize, USM, curves, levels, saturation in more or less random order.

Great idea and very good execution. Shame we can see the saw cut beyond the penetration of the axe blade but good shot

Fantastic shot. I especially like the axe and the way it has cleaved so cleanly into the hard disc. The feeling of mystery and suspense is heightened by the suggestion in the title that there are maybe dark secrets being hidden here. Very well executed and creatively presented without going over the top with none of the gore and blood that is so often associated with cases like this.

haha nice. what I want to know is if that was a lucky strike or if you precut the drive and then inserted the axe.
