 This is part of the bottom of my shoe, can you tell? I like how it looks kind of grainy and dirty, it represents the condition of my old shoe nicely.

I had an extremely difficult time getting it straight, it still looks a little off to me.

Sharpened several times
Black & White
cropped
attempted to straighten
changed the contrast a little
resized
but maybe not in that exact order

Thanks in advance for any and all comments

You found the X-Men's secret cave?!? Nice work. Love the composition and the B&W conversion. IMO Maybe a tighter crop from top to bottom would have helped a bit.

This could be a brick or stone in a walkway or on a building, it could be the detail in a rubber mat, hard to tell!
