I feel ANY good photograph is in some way "photojournalism." For, in fact, shouldn't a good photograph contain information worthy of one's daily journal? This shot cannot (and will not) be pigeon-holed into a category (landscape, still life, etc.) It is expansive enough to touch all of them if the viewer wishes to make the connections. In turning a theme as nebulous as "shoes" into a warring, brooding, epic story complete with plot and subplots; you have lifted not only the theme, but the viewer as well and gone to where a good photograph can take us. You have added a page to my journal today. One of my picks to ribbon ... which is usually a curse to mediocrity among the mass voters, but hey.... I read what you wrote here and appreciated your penmanship.

Good B&W, the contents work well in this tone. The gradation from light to dark in the upper part is smooth and pleasent.
I like the composition, but would prefer a more square crop. The space in the lower fifth of the photo does little for the photo, it could do without.
A view on someones back like this, with the shoe on the floor, makes me wonder what the person is doing. The effect is some kind of curiosity and expectation. A good way to catch the viewer. 9
