Sky , Lines & Shoes

This is kinda abstract and cool. The composition is good, not centering the shoes was the way to go as you knew. No matter that there are others in challenge with similar concept, what matters is that this photo works.

Although love the colors together, it doesn't help the subject like it should. The compositon is good, but It's like the photo couldn't speak for itself if the title didn't tell you what to think.

Composition, close up, title are all good. The fact that there were several others with the same concept doesn't matter, what matters is you did it right. Good job.

Nice angle, composition is good. Interesting but not overly exciting.

Underwater shoes

Comment:
This is a case of too much. One pair ,up close, underwater would have made a much more effective and visually appealing photo. The "boots" are totally not necessary becasue they are "boots" when the subject is shoes and the three legs makes you really concentrate on what that's about instead of on your subject which is still shoes.

Good lighting and depth of field . Shoe string is a bit too in front, but it's all good.

Which ones do I wear today?

There's nothing very original here but never the less, I like it. The composition is good, other elements that don't belong are not there and it's all good.

butterfly shoes

Everything works for me in this photo except the marks left by your model's previous shoes (or ankle cuffs) and the spots on the top of one of the toenails. I like the way you got in close to the subject, i like the colors you chose, even the butterfly doesn't look out of place and the background, although it is busy, it is still working with the colors here, so overall, not bad .

Composition and angle are good, the blur would be also except that the background should be blurred more so than your subject. It's hard to look at the shoes because the blur on the leg is really messing with my eyes. This would be more effective if the shoes were slightly more visible.To get the background to blur as if in motion you need to do what is called "panning" which is focusing on your subject and moving your lens smoothly along with your subject , causing it stay more in focus than the background. I find this hard to do with the slow auto focus of digital cameras.
