A really nice shot. Almost the story of a "gunslinger" or what remains. Well done - should have scored higher.

I really like how the background supports the title and foreground subject. Is the horizon tilted or is it on a hill?

Some really nice tone-mapping on this composition. I like that the western boots step up as the front and center main subject of this photo. The background also adds visual interest for we see a cow pasture (at least they look like cows more than horses to me) and some barns along with fence. That backdrop also shows the working environment of the main subject. Love the details and the highlights & shadows on the boots. The only critique I have is that the backdrop is tilted to the right whereas the boots are level this makes the world seem lop-sided and appear odd to the eye. Having the horizon level as well as the main subject would be less confusing to the eye.

not keen on the background but the tonemapping works well here.

Interesting use of HDR. I like the subtleties of the background showing the western lifestyle without taking too much attention from the boots.

Great depth on this photo! Magnificent colors. Best of all the "boot" shots.

The sloping composition is nicely balanced by the trees. And of course, the colours are lovely. Ain't it nice to have water in your dam? :)

interesting boot shot, but maybe trying too hard with so much background.

Nice pair of boots. Image seems a tad overprocessed IMO (makes it seem somewhat gaudy). JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Best of the "prop" shots. The tonemapped feel works well. The cows int he background are a great touch.
