Oh well. I blame this one on my ISP. For some reason I get timeout errors when uploading large files. Small ones are fine. I tried a dozen times on this one, and once when it went through I forgot to add the details (again).
For the record, the only post processing was a crop and adjust contrast with curves. The photo was taken with a pane of glass between my foot and the boot. I used a long exposure and a flashlight to light paint the back of the boot and front of the foot. However, it was a crappy piece of glass that caused a slight double reflection on the foot, which caused the blur. But thanks for all the great comments everyone!

I want you to know that I absolutely love this photo! To begin with I wasn't convinced it fell into the catagory of basic editing as I thought you'd used 2 images but on hind sight I think it may all be down to long exposure and swapping boot for foot. Am I right?
Nice idea but not really pulled off perfectly, mainly I dislike the slight movement of the foot itself. Also I think I would have liked it better if the WB would be cooler as I don´t really care that much for the yellow toning. 6 from me, mostly for the creativity and effort you put in this one.
You did the shot that I was considering doing, but decided not to enter this one. Did you get a book called Surreal Photography? I just got it a few weeks a go and a similar image was on the cover. Anyway, I give it an 8. I know the barefoot was moving and that is why it is blurry, and I think you could have adjusted the color saturation a little differently
