A little disturbing. Not a happy message. Was going for the apocolyptic sepia look. And that's real blood on the blade. I cut myself while taking the picture, so I put a little blood on there. Hope it's not over the top.

Very good, but would be better if no blood on the blade...would make it more of a contimplating picture ( did I spell that right?)

Quite powerful. Good lighting and composition.

good lighting. i think it would look good in black and white with only the red of the blood on the blade. 7

I like the light in this photo. The image is great for this shoot.

good creativity and lighting. The dirt on the hand is good to bring out the texture of the skin.

nice photo, i really like the idea

Like the compostition, like the colour, like the dirtiness of subject against the cleanness of the light - I just find it too literal an interpretation.

Sorry mock suicide photos are not despair to me, great focus, great shot, but the subject gets a 1.

would be better with the blade against your wrist
