Technically, this shot is okay. The lighting is good; there are no blown out areas and there is still details in the darks. The focus is good in that the subject is still identifiable, and any areas not in focus don't detract. The colors are a bit too uniform for my taste. I think a different color of plate or peas with carrots would have added a dash of flavor to the shot (pun, though bad as it is, was intended).
Compositionally, the long narrow crop you have chosen makes this picture feel flat. It is cramped and tight, and while that in and of itself is not a bad thing, in this shot, it doesn't give the viewer a chance to fully "feel" the shot. The placement of the items in the picture place the focus (at least for me) on the knife and onion slice rather than the shoe.
It does meet the challenge and is a creative and imaginative take on it. I think a couple of things executed differently would have really made this shot stand out.
Best wishes in future challenges.

| Comical. Good job for catching the logo on the shoe--it helps identify the interesting texture on the palette. ;) |

| Clever idea. And the picture looks interesting, how there are 'soles' and other bits of food (with a knife and a fork) on a plate. The colors are nice, and the lighting is good. |

| Interesting shot, I completely lost the point that this was on a plate and was served as a meal (I always slow). Maybe just too tightly cropped? - 7 |

| Odd composition, it's cropped too tight, . The lighting could be softened to reduce the glare on the reflective surfaces. |
