Thanks to my daughter's boyfriend and his infinite patience. I originally had a full setup with knife in blood puddle and "cop" holding his arm, but decided on the crop.
Neighbours sure had weird looks for us, since we did it on the street!
Cropped, adjusted levels, hue/saturation, sharpened, resized, unsharp mask, saved for web.

hey, s.

i liked this one, gave it a 6. i don't agree with the whinging of some of the comments, but some glycerine in thefake blood would have stopped it from separtating on his hand - on the meat of the thumb base on his left hand, you can see it's not real. so, next time you need to have copious amounts of fake blood, ya know! nice croppinhg - definitely more effective than thewider shot would have been.

Interesting composition - not even close to my style, but good lighting and focus. Original and no distractions in the shot.
