Comment by HBunch:
This looks very wrathful to me. Quite an interesting effect. This looks like an apple to me, that has been skewerd through a wrist. I am not sure what the apple (if that's what it is) represents, but even without meaning, this photo still screams wrath to me. I think that the lighting is powerful for the overall effect of the shot. Your focus and clarity are decent, and the framing/cropping are also good. I might have wanted to see the finger tips, but with the circumstances, I dont think it is nessasary. Overall a powerful shot and well to meet the challenge. Good luck in the challenge. ~hbunch7187~

I have to think about it. I can tell that your photo wants to say something. The religious implications are certainly there -- I just have to figure out WHAT I think it's trying to say and whether I think it succeeds. 5 for now. I'll think about it.

My my, that's quite shocking to me! Never the less right on theme and well executed. Framing might have been better to support the dramatic composition. 7/10

I'm assuming you are making a reference to the cross and my lord, Jesus...you apparently have no understanding of this statement and therefore have absolutely no right to use it for your sick entertainment...plus your photograph lacks the shock value that you were going for because your blood looks like tar...wierd!!!

Too dark (lighting) ,and the "blood" - if that is what it is supposed to be, looks more like oil or grease to me. Doesn't appeal to me, also I see only an inferred connection to the 7 deadly sins; title off target for me in any case. lhall-3
