I expect low scores and great humiliating criticism on this. I almost chose not to submit. But I need to learn what I'm doing wrong and this is my best shot at honest input from the experts.
Post challenge: Humiliations galore!

seems a bit over sharpened. the doorway is distracting as well are the shoelaces running off of the page. I think this could have been a more interesting shot from a different angle with a bit more exotic lighting.
Nice arrangements of shoes by color it balances the composition. I like the white trum and the concrete door frame shown but perhaps a little more at top could be shown to frame this out. I say this a 10 for fitting in the challenge description...
I like the idea behind this one, might I be picky and say i would have preferred it with all the shoes standing up? Still a great shot and nice and clear.
the shoes say they belong to a family...now, think of something the family might do together....walk down a street, play in a stream, ??? whatever ....perhaps if you had the shoes playing out that scene it would be more interesting. Try it...then let me know if you agree.
I like the shoe idea. I think that it is creative, the title is cute too. The background doesn't do much for your picture though. I wish that either the shoes were all up or down. The door is distracting.
