real interesting rocks in your shoes....... a great composition idea, "more pixals please" as has been mentioned before about not utilizing full 640x format might be a suggestion.

Complementary colours are pairs of opposite colours that contrast strongly when compared to each other. The challenge called for two complementary colors to compose your photograph, but in your photo you have used red and yellow as your only colours on a neutral background, and they don't give the effect of tones of a single predominating colour against tones of its opposite or complementary colour.

This is a great study of an unusual juxtaposition of objects. But I think your submission would have been a demonstration of complementary colours if, in the same scene, you had shot a blue pump instead of a red one. Then, you would have had a complementary pair of yellow/blue, and a striking image as well.

Nevertheless, I enjoy your vision and the way that you have portrayed texture in this image! In another challenge, this would have been a great submission.

this was really fun and inventive, but it doesn't meet the challenge.

Interesting picture. I don't see complementary colors here but seems like you are trying to make a statement. Love that red shade against the pavement.

Cool idea but, purple and yellow would have suited the challenge

I like the composition, but I don't see the complementary colors. Maybe if the shoes were purple? I do love the shot itself though.

I woulf have liked to have seen this sized at 640.

This would meet the challenge if the shoes had been purple.

Does not meet the challenge.

This is odd // and i'm not sure that it fits - but the uniqueness and simplicity is propelling it for me ... 6
