I thought about stacking everything in one spot so that the knife was underneath the onion and it looked like it was all one jumbled mess. The water would be splashed on the outside of it like it was poured/dropped from a distance a la Jackson Polack but forgot to shoot that version

This is a fascinating abstract - hellish, what damnation would look like. I'm not even religious, and this makes me want to pray for forgiveness. :) Seriously emotive.

Ahhh, Richard...I just LOVE this photo...you know why?! Instantly, I was captured but then had to think about why...the water on the knife and the reflection within carries the abstract emotional impact as the heart of this photo for me. As always, exceptional doesn't begin to describe the beauty of your work and this photo does not disappoint your fans!!! The emotional within the mundane! (I was a little disappointed not see any UFO's though...;-P...) Many congrats on your ribbon!
