Max had a very interesting composition going and a unique knife
couple that with his oval framing which he conquered and you have a winner!!! He has worked quite hard on this which shows you all can do it too. :rolleyes:

Fred Carted was a victim of no one ever posting a B&W pic before. If you really look at it it is a very strong picture.

Alex has reached into the supernatural and left us wondering "what the hell is he thinking." He and Phil have a bag of tricks not available to us mortals!!!

Huffman had a real nice pic overall, but you need to control the shadow areas. Once you do that you can be a winner.

Alan your composition was great, but, it overpowered the KNIFE. The most important part of a knife pics is the KNIFE!!!

Rade your pics get better and better. Are you taking the pics or is Alex? This weeks pic needed a little more contrast. The block behind the knife didn't help the composition.

Dogman just keeps cranking out perfectly exposed pics and he will win again. His undoing is choice of backgrounds. This week her ran out of coins and flowers. ;)

Well I think that was the strongest week so far. Man, it was hard to choose.

I voted for Steve, just doggoned great photo Steve, the sheath set the knife off perfectly.

Alan's photo was so strong it actually brought tears to my eyes, it was like the end of an era.

Max's pictiure would probably have got my vote if the knife had not been so parallel.

Freds' was very strong, this guy is incredible at using props. I just didn't care for the association MY mind made.

Alex had eyeballs in his that were interesting.

Huffman's was another very strong shot for me, except I felt the knife was upside down.

The block of wood in Rade's shot distracted me. It's funny, I like props in a photo of a knife but sometimes they distract me and then I don't like them.

Dogman's photo skills are catching up to his knifemaking skills.

Extremly well done.

Hey Alex, glad you noticed. I cannot belive some of the crap I have experienced the last couple of weeks from our gov...no actually I can. This is one sick country man.

Don't worry brother ... you can always move to Haiti. At least you'll know what to expect.

Actually Ghost the good Ol' US Gov beats everyone when it comes to stabbing folks in the back, they have a bigger knife ;-)

Well, this week I voted for Fred Carter's picture. It may not have been the best knife picture but it just had that label on it that said 'Vote for me'......so I did! Black & White photos work for me, they have a certain power that colour lacks at times.

It was another week where there could have been six winners.

I couldn't vote for Max because his photo of that Tai Goo cactus knife is better than the one I was working on at the weekend :)

Hey Alex, moving to Haiti wouldn't work. Once you have lived in one third world country......................
