This was taken on a somewhat clear day out on the ranch. I tried to capture the boots in a way that they seemed to be lonely.

The side of the building on the left hand should be cropped out it doesn't add to the photo.

this looks like you used on board flash on the camera and to me it was set too high. and why did you leave the dark edge on the left side of the image? I keep asking myself what you had in mind by including that and I just can't seem to tie it to the meaning of the photo? maybe did you mean it to signify that there is a barn close by? or maybe a building for cows? I just can't figure it out at all. Maybe you can explain after the challenge?

focus seems soft.

I think the direct crop takes away a bit of the intrigue you could have with these boots. Maybe if they were in the left third, looking like they were "looking" off into the distance, it would draw more attention.

Boots seem a little hazy, but the background does add to the shot.

Whatever that is at that the left edge of the frame is distracting me.
