Excellent capture. I like the motion blur that adds to the sense of the cleaver chopping through (though it looks like his right hand -- was he raising it after using it on the back of the blade?). What small detail makes it for me is the picture in the bottom middle, as if it was a "before" shot.
Great shot... you captured it perfectly. The stillness at the head, and the action near the rear... excellent!

I've been told it was a sheep. I watched them hammer and cleave for a good 10 minutes. Very entertaining on a cold Winter's evening.
