Hi from the Critique Club!
I like the tones in this shot, but I do wonder if color would have added more interest in this being a "choice."
The angle of this does add interest to the shot, and I think overall the exposure is pretty good - although I agree that the white shoes distract from the rest of the photo because of their brightness. So technically, aside from the white shoes, I like this shot well enough.
The subject choice itself does not really carry much interest for me. When I judge a photo's strength in meeting the challenge, I first look at the shot without a title and without knowing for sure which challenge it was in - and see if I can figure it out. I can figure it out with this one, so the connection to the challenge is there - I just don't personally find it an interesting way of conveying choice. I didn't vote on the choices challenge, but I would have given this one a 6.
Shoes might have made a more interesting subject with some color maybe -and a more unique composition? Maybe include some feet with a different shoe on each foot and a pile of shoes nearby? Just some thoughts.
I hope this is helpful!

| Composition is effective as is the sepia toning. Definitely a choice! |

| Definitely fits the challenge, I find the 'white' pair on the right of the shot very distracting and really too over pwering to the rest of the shot. |

... and some aid workers in Africa have to choose which kids live or die. Well I think the choices we make are quite easy really...
Shot is OK but lacks a wide tonal range (over and under exposed). |

| Interesting composition. The shoes in the center right seem over exposed. |
