CRITIQUE CLUB!
This is an excellent photo and perfect for the challenge. The subject is great, focus is sharp, and the framing is very appealing. I enjoy how the subject fills the frame.
I have only two comments. One, the photo is overexposed a bit. The glare on the straps is distracting, and you lose a lot of detail in the sand. Granted, on a beach in the middle of the summer sun there's not a whole lot of control you've got. The other comment is the color saturation. While I know the challenge was "Blue," it seems like maybe you bumped up the blues in this photo a bit too much? It's soooo vibrant that it almost looks faked.
Overall, an excellent entry. I truly enjoyed this image.

I like this quite a bit. However I don't think you needed to saturate the blue as much as you did. It is clean and simple and the straight overhead angle works very well with this shot. |

*grrr* I envy you for the warm weather ;-) It's a very nice photo. I like the contrast of the colours and the texture of the sand. I seems a bit overexpsured because in the lower left corner the sand is very bright. |

This is definitely different, I must say. Very clear and bright and sharp focus. What BLUE flip flops. Doesn't seem like Christmas though. I'll take mine, thank you. Good photo. Not a "wow" but a good solid technically right one. PTL 7 |

Can't see what it has to do with Christmas (except for the hot weather bit) but it's a great shot! |

i like the color but maybe another angle showing more of the beach or even some of the water might make this photo look better. |

I like the contrasts here... the shoes could have been a little clearer, look slightly blurry, and the sand looks burnt out in a few places. Nice idea though... and very striking blue! Lucky you... much warmer then where I am <GRIN>. Good luck! |

Very emotive. Interesting use and great idea. Shoes seem blurry, maybe illusion but still a great shot and a great idea. |

I like how bright the blue is in this one. Normally I wouldn't but in this shot it works well. Nice picture. |
