I agree, it's a bit too dark. But I'm guessing this was not a shot where you had control over all the variables... I think it's still very good. Great composition.
Very creative shot. Better than just a shot of shoes. It gives a reason for shoes and why we need them. The shot is a bit dark and under exposed from the shadows and slightly out of focus. More detail would have helped this shot out quite a bit. I like the cropping and composition it was done with thought and imagination. Very nicely done. I am also from San Diego and love to walk around Balboa Park and take candid shots of the locals and tourist.
i know u concentrated on the shoes but i wish you could capture more of the people.i don't know exactly what's going on in the picture,from your title i'm guessing they are dancing.but i like it.8
Image has a bit too much contrast. It is hard to see any details in eaither of the dancers without REALLY looking hard. Had you taken this from the other side (opposite shadow) it would have been a bit lighter and more detail would have shown.
