Greetings from the Critique Club!
A great photo. The simple composition is effective. Proportion and balance are just right. The overall effect is humorous and a bit zany. It seems a bit flat, partly because of the pure white background and partly because the shoes and socks are black so don't show any shadow. The lighting is fine; it subtly shows the form of the bare legs, and the unobtrusive reflections hint of the form of the shoes.
I may be wrong, but I'm guessing that the photo was underexposed and lightened during post-processing (the shoes have more noise than I would have expected). If so, exposing for detail in the shoes and socks might have captured some and given more depth to the image. Other technical aspects are great: focus, sharpness, color, etc. are all fine. |

This is a very funny idea, and a great composition and title! I'd like to see a bit better focus and light to show more details and texture and contrast. |

Good Idea, creative. Putting the feel in an "unusual" place really pulls the attention to them |

would have preferred either a little less symmetry or more evenness - still, amusing mood and contrast |

Why do I picture John Cleese posing for this picture? Really funny, in a Monty Python way. Brilliant! |
