 I am a computer programmer by trade...All of my friends are construction workers. Guess which one of us has to wear a hard hat and steel toes to work every day? Ironic, huh?

The background in this picture takes a lot away from the subject.

Made me chuckle... saw this and thought of a dwarf, and then noticed the title. So, you get bonus marks for that. Where you lose marks is...Boots are too dark... they have no detail. There's too much clutter on the ground around the subject, and the background is also distracting. Might have been worthwhile getting a darker helmet and darker surface on which to rest the boots, which would have allowed you to get more details in the boots without risking over exposing the helmet.

I would like this better if the objects were more in the realm of where they would be used, like construction site etc.

Not a great image Im afraid.
the composition is poor and a lot of the detail in the boots is lost in darkness.
An uninspiring background also.
Sorry. 2/10.

A great idea that I think could have had some better potential.

And I thought I was short.... :-) Good for meeting the challenge, but a tough shot to expose well given the strong differences between the boots and hat. Hat has good detail but I'm thinking on some monitors all detail in the boots may be lost.
