 Low light at the end of the day and a (now) old sneaker. What I couldn't get was the gaping hole where the big toe is - sacrifices had to be made for composition. I struggled to get a dramatic crop and am still not really satisfied with it. It's a pity we have to reduce the size as the stitching and weave in the laces are razor sharp in the original.

nice overall, maybe try a longer exposure to give water a softer feel, and the sneaker has a bit too much glare for me

I think you should have picked a different shoe to use, but the setting is beautiful!

What does that shoe have to do with the sea? Without the shoe the photo would be a very nice landscape; the shoe looks very out of place and really random.

Nice idea. The colors in the photo are really nice and the focus is good. Didn't really understand the title, but I don't think that matters as long as you understand the picture. Nice job.
