Amazing capture. I'm sure you are hearing about the grain/noise - a result of the cropping I assume - I had a similar problem with my submission. Doesn't take away from the fact that you snatched a great photographic moment, here. Ahh, but if only I had several thousand to unload on a 500mm lens! Nice work.

And they said it couldn't be done... Nice shot- I would normally whine about the graininess, but I'm assuming (because the wing feathers are visible) that this must have been a very fast shutter speed, and an accordingly high ISO.

I'm giving you bonus points for difficulty- as I'm not a huge fan of this image, but I really appreciate the difficulty here.

V nice simple image. I voted it down to a 5 as I didn't feel it met "silverware" although on second thought... it is something one uses to put things into ones body, though the photo does not scream silver except for the side of the tip. Worth exploring variations on the theme, IMHO.
Creative take, Keep thinking outside the box. Agree needs the point being in sharp focus with the drop in focus too.

I'm sorry I fail to see how this is relevent to this challenge. A needle is a long way from a spoon, fork, knife, or any other piece of silverware I know of. That being said the DoF is quite good.

Not sure how a needle is considered silverware, but a nice shot nonetheless.

Cool shot - but silverware? I think they were talking about eating utensils.

Not the first thing that comes to mind when thinking silverware...But very nicely done. Certainly memorable.
