Well composed, well lit, excellent choice to opt for black and white. I can feel the texture.

Maybe a little more contrast would help this shot. I Like the texture

I like this alot actually, very simple idea but good composition. You can 'feel' the leather/suede.

Supple, old leather. Good choice. Not sure about including so much of the laces area.

I'm back to comment. Nice detail on the texture. The lighting is good and the B&W works really well.

Keep it up...

You really did capture the rough, yet soft texture very well. Something about the composition....too busy maybe? Still a good shot.

Great capture of the detail of the boot, great impression of texture. Nothin to propel my vote beyond a 6 though - just lacks that spark of inspiration somehow. Strong compositionally though - real graphic elements, and effective.

+ Good use of light to bring out the textures, nice composition to bring appeal to an ordinary shoe.
- Can't think of any.

The lightning here is a bit flat so the image kind of runs all in one tone, but a nice subject
