i saw the shoe challenge and had a vague idea of what i wanted to do. I went outside set up my shot and shot my first two pics and it was only then that i realised my iso was set at 1600-this was the result and i thought it looked pretty interesting so i kept it! The shoe is actually pitch black and the heel is solid but i think the effect of the wrong exposure made it visually interesting!

interesting shot. I keep wanting to scroll left to see the toe! Taking your title into consideration, the portait orientation works well. Maybe try to crop or compose so that you have some open space in the top of the frame. I feel this would enhance the image, especially in light of the title.
I want to like this, but my first thought was, "Ouch!" The white is good, but the blown-out parts just hurt to look at. Other than that, I like the composition and title. 7
oh .. it makes me want this shoe! ... the only reason it did not get a 10 from me was the scratches on the leather were so visible. Fantastic other than that.
i really think that this could have been a better photo against a darker background, black would have been nice. big hot spot on shoe is very bright and distracting. to bad all the creases/scratches in the shoe are visible.
crop seems umm... awkward, especially the fact the untidy corner of the strap was left. could be closer to emphasize the tall heel.
I think you've gone just a bit too far overexposed there too, and the focus isn't as sharp as you would expect to see in something see-through like the heel.
