I think you've captured "sharp" well here! I like the droplets of water on the lid but maybe a few more or none at all would have been better. It's almost like they shouldn't be there, but if they should then there should be more - know what I mean?
I like how you filled the frame and the relflection really adds interest! Nice shot overall!

Great idea! I love the pun! =) I think I would have focused more on the lid and had the words on the can OOF.

Clever is my word of the day it seems because I think this was a very well crafted shot. I like the reflection on the stove top - just the perfect balance again not to overwhelm the shot. It seems as though you focused in on that one jagged edge on the left - probably the sharpest point and I like that. I can see myself catching my finger on that very spot. Good one!

I really liked this shot when I first saw you submit it. Are you stealing my reflection of the table technique? I think this is a really unique idea and I actually love that reflection, it adds a lot of interest. I do wish the s wasn't cut off on the edge. I also think this would have been better if it wasn't upside down. I just don't normally see cans like that, I think taking it standing up might have been better, but that is just a personal thing, it probably is different for everybody what they would prefer.

Seeing it upside down like that makes me think that stuff should be spilling out of the can, but I really like this shot. Definitely a great take on the theme. Very sharp!

The idea is great - I have been cut by a can lid before and it really hurts. I wish that the words on the can weren't cut off . However, I love the reflection in the stove top - what a great idea!

I think the idea was a great one, but I would not have turned the can upside down. It is just really unnatural. I think the shot would bet better if the can was right side up. There are a variety of different angles you could have shot from to get a well composed shot. I think your focus feel on the "campbells" label. For this challenge I think it would have been more effective if the focus fell on the sharp lid. In this shot my eye was drawn more to the label than the sharp lid. Good idea and I think with a few tweaks it has some serious potential.

Thanks for the comments - I guess the upside-down can and water drops look natural to me - I always wash the cans (and drain) before they go in the recycling box! Got inspired by washing up after lunch.

The reflection doesn't really add anything to the photo. I'd probably get rid of it. I would also like to see the lighting on the lid a bit brighter in keeping with the can.
