Ginsu Knife

The colors and use of the bowl are quite nice here. However, IMHO, the almost vertical knife, right down the middle, doesn't offer a dynamic image, nor does it work as well geometrically with the bowl. I can't say this for sure, but I actually think having the knife pointed down, towards the viewer, would be more dynamic, and might even trigger a very slight "danger" emotional reaction from the viewer. Another thought: It might have been interesting geometrically to have the knife just above the bowl, somewhat horizontal, touching it at the top of the arc just barely.

Just some thoughts, hard to visualize without cutting the knife out to play. The light and colors here are so wonderful though, that I'd love to see you play with this a little.

FWIW, I gave this a 6.

Congratulations. This is truly different, imaginative. When we have a thread on "never been done before", this should definitely be on the top of the list!

Beautiful capture! Colors are great. I love the pattern of the edges of the gorge. Alaska is so beautiful, I have to get back there again soon!
