Susan, I love the lighting here, really good idea. I think you got hurt because the oranges aren't quite in focus, and DPC is very unforgiving in that area in general. Not sure if you used a tripod, but if not, almost impossible to get sharp focus handheld at 1/4.

This was a supurb idea. I think it should have been a little sharper but this was composed very well.

I like the backlighting - really highlights the texture of the slices.

Susan, I really like the perspective on this. Even though the boots are a prop in the barn, the photo gives a sense of animation, as if someone were wearing them. I think it's the slight scuffing on the heels that provides that illusion- the boots look like they're being lifted off the ground. Very cool.
I think you scored lower than you would have in a different challenge - I had trouble figuring out how spurs related to "good" and I suspect other people did as well.
One suggestion would be to add a warming filter. There is a cool cast that may not be intentional.
Overall, great job, and again, wonderful perspective. Hope to see more shots like this from you!

the black in the boot does not have the richness that I would like to see.
