Comment by bassbone:
very dramatic and intense image - the lighting and brightness on the knife with the shadow running across at an angle provides very good composition. I can't think of a thing to improve on this one!

The composition on this is excellent. The shadow is the kicker, and tells a story - very ominous... :o)

This is a great example of high contrast that doesn't go too far. Very sharp, like the knife.

I love the V created by the knife and its shadow. Great depth of tone.

Interesting abstract. I'm wishing there was just a tad larger DOF here, but I like it all the same.

Arty gave you some good tips, I see, and this is a great place to learn - especially with these side challenges. There are other Picasa users here - try posting in the forums and you'll get some good advice, I'm sure.

The key thing here is you've got a very good shot to work with - a very good capture. I really do like the intensity, and despite what "good" photography gurus will say, I like light and shadows.
