I agree with most of what's been said. Little things bother me -- such as the boot on the left of the picture is drawing my eye out of the picture instead of into it. It may have been stronger with the lower boot on the other side. The focus is a bit wonky, and so is the color. I still probably would have given it a 6, because none of these things makes that big of a difference.

What you'd need to do to get a higher score from me is to make me more interested. Tie it into something. As giantmike said, perhaps a more gritty setting. Or even some mud attached to the bottom of the boots with some bits coming off on the floor. Make me think of the work and sweat that happens in these boots. Context other than a front hall will have more meaning.
