Don't understand this. But also think the blade on the bottom knife needs to be more in focus and let the table fade away. Just my opinion.

very dramatic. I like how you blurred the background to give attention to the knide in the foreground. Once again, the black and white makes the shot.

I haven't got a clue what the superstition is, but I guess there must be one. A cracking photo, only (minor) complaint would be the shadow is too long.

Wow, that's a great shot!! Good shadow, and love the DOF!

A very moody shot, and with the title, it sends chills down one's spine, but I believe it doesn't really fit the challenge theme. 7

great idea. I think it would be more impactful with greater depth of field and less glare on the table.

nice macro shot, kind of lost me on the urban legend / superstition thing, though these are pretty knives.
