The lighting on this shot is very harsh. This leads me to believe that you used the on camera flash. This results in the overexposed appearance of the feet and the harsh shadows behind. If you're gonna use flash at this short a distance, try taping toilet paper or light thin cloth over the flash... Your composition is not bad, with some more creative lighting (no flash, light from side, use tripod to hold camera very still) and this could be an interesting study.

could use a little more contrast, neat idea

Nice try of a new concept, but here are some tips:

- Too bright
- Try a different angle
- Add some other things, such as fruit, to add some creativity to the photo.

P.S. Sorry about the original comment. I was harsh and did not think.

I would have placed your feet a bit more far from the background, this way the shadows would have had enough space to diffuse, and maybe a symmetric composition would be better, too. Otherwise it's a nice photo.

cute (baby?) toes. Perhaps if the entire feet where shown the focal point could be less on the toes and more on the whole feet, fitting hte challenge (IMO) better. 6

Although a mode of transportation, I just can't stretch my imagination enough to call feet a vehicle. That aside, the picture itself doesn't really do much for me. The cropping is good but the lighting seems a little bland and I don't care for the shadows.

I think a brighter background color would give this photo more impact

Good idea. Never would have thought of that.

Nice feet[s] :) The lighting is way too bright but the idea is clear.

the shadows are not doing anything for this picture. -4

Overexposed and lit from the wrong angle. Not really a vehicle without the rest of the foot, hey?

I thought of this, but couldn't get the shot I wanted. Nice job!
