I'm well aware this is doomed, I did it for the hell of it. This is definitely my "idea" of pain, in that it's my personal nightmare (yes, I came close once...)

Incidentally, you CAN'T see the "finger" folded under; look at the other fingers, the same "web" under the finger shows the same shadow on them...

A lot of people didn't catch the humor of the purposeful fakeizing in mine, either (some people take stuff sooo seriously, don't they?). I love the border.

To all who asked, it's jalapeno sauce, not ketchup. The pain came when I licked it off my dinger. This was a last-minutes shot, I'd just downloaded NeatImage and wanted to play with it. Wasn't meant to be taken seriously and it wasn't...

If anything, I see it as a sort of tongue-in-cheek homage to the old B-film slasher movies...

The border was fun to do, I wanted a "slipped" feel to the whole thing.

Thanx all to those who commented.

This is just gross, and not well done -- I can see the finger bent under itself! Come on...

Don't you just hate it when people spill the ketchup on the counter. Sometimes towells aren't enough and you have to go after it with a kitchen knife. Would be just a bit more convincing if you couldn't actually see the finger doubled under. I like the gleam of the knife.

Not feeling the "border" of this image. Best to keep it simple. And why would the knife be positioned horizontally? Shouldn't it be vertical? Heinz? I have a craving for french fries now.

Initial reaction is shock, then it looks contrived.

The blood has too much texture... resulting in a "ketchup" look. Great sharpness and lighting though!

I think the worse problem this person has is the fact that he's bleeding ketchup!
