Those are some big boots.

I like the clouds in this shot.

However, I tihnk that the red car in the foreground kinda gets in the way, it would have been better if the car would not be in the picture.

With this as your subject I think you have wasted a great opportunity. The shot here is a straight record shot with very little 'WOW' about it, but with a little planning and forethought this could have been a ribbon.

With low angled light and a closeup/wide angle the possibilities are endless.

Shame

Looks just like a snapshot, maybe even waiting for the car to get out of shot would have improved it.

They must be right "everything is big in Texas". I don't know if there is a better angle...probably not. There is so much going on in the shot that it distracts from the boots. I know you need a reference point for their size. I think you got the shot that was there, it just has way to much going on IMO. But I do like the boots.

Are you serious? Is that even real? The sky is pretty and if you actually took that picture it doesn't look like you edited it.

Neat find! I'd crop more off the right. Nothing of interest on that side that can add to your view.
