Her Stolen Steps

viewing this now after the challenge and not comparing it to any other shoe pics i realize that i should have voted it higher. i guess that means voter fatigue was a big factor, there were just so many shots of shoes on the ground that this one didnt stand out at time of voting.
i do think that the ground is too busy. i JUST noticed what looks like a star of david necklace coming out of the shoe, i had to look at the pic a couple times over the last couple minutes before i saw it. i think the clutter in the ground caused me to miss this the first time around and its a detail that really brings the pic together for me now.
during voting i understood the emotion you were going for but i dont think it quite hit home with me, reading through your list of reasons i think #3 would best describe why.
to sum up: #1, 2 and 3.

the flying groundhog is distracting. might have worked better with it on the ground
