Your perspective is a bit wonky... but this is a surreal still life so I guess anything goes.. it's just that meat grinder is on a level plane while the floor boards are really tilting forward.. it's a great chop, but I think if you changed the perspective on the board, it would ground the objects tighter (Distortion works when only about 10 percent is alter, after that the image looks manipulated)
Thanks for your advice! I'm on it
I've changed the image, but I still don't think I've managed what you were telling me
I think what's causing you trouble is it's size, if you enlarged it and brought it more forward into the image, it would make it's perspective less obvious.. it's very small (you could enlarge it to complete a triangle (think of Jesus in the Last Supper by Leonardo)... now it's just a suggestion, but if you enlarged it triple it's size (yes I know that sounds big) but it would lock the whole image together by creation a giant triangle, pulling the whole image together... ack.. it's been years since design class.. so I could be a total nutter, but I think if you visualize it (the grinder) larger, you could see what I'm talking about
ACK! also.. by enlarging it, you could fiddle with the distort/perspective of it (again, in the 10 percent range) and it would give it more stability.. then again, live monkeys could fly out my butt.. don't spend too much time on it if it's not worth it to you..
Thank you very much for considering my advice, it means more than you know 
Ok, I've tried the enlarging and modified the perspective. I don't think I can do much more. And thanks again. It's important to receive constructive criticism to get better.
