*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
A cute subject that meets the challenge well.
What a lovely little crab, you've captured it nicely with a shallow DOF isolating him from the sand background, I disagree with one of your commenters, the eye looks in good sharp focus, exactly how it should be, the problem is that the detail on the shoe canvas competes. It's a shame his eye is obscured by sand it makes it feel rather painful!
What I don't like is that the shoe dominates the crab and the image as a whole, I feel there is a strong argument for a judicial crop close to the crab's leg, a square would probably work well, there is just too much shoe and too much distracting detail in it. I like that the crab forms a diagonal within the image it strengthens the composition.
Thanks for submitting, Sid |

Good technical qualities. Nice framing too, and it looks like you connected (literally) with your subject. |

Crab eyes needs to be in focus instead of the sneaker top. |

I like it, specially the fact the he seems to be looking at you. I think a clean converse would make it better, together with some fill in the left. 5 |
