I can't see anything wrong with it, it's clear, the colour is great, they stand out beautifully against the black, very creative idea.. and it makes a great desktop and it would make a great poster for a dance company.. personally I would take more notice of the comments..
I don't understand how people can vote so low on good quality work, is it because they just want to get the voting over with to post their work, or are they just blind, I've given up on trying to figure people out on here.. Jeenie if your satisfied and like what you have done thats really all that matters.. its your creativity no-one elses and expanding that creativity and posting something different is great thats how it should be, creative and unique.. I find that on here people seem to like the same style, the same things over and over again, thats fine but it holds back the creativity in the artists because i have noticed and heard many times "Oh I tried something different and didn't get the votes.. guess I'll keep taking more or creating more of the images that got the big scores" the problem with that is, you won't learn new styles and you'll be stuck in the small creative box that should be out there growing..

Take more and create more of these original pieces of work.. I for one welcome creativity and different.. ;)

*ok i'll shut up now

There is nothing wrong with the image .. in fact, if you have a dance school nearby .. drop in and give them a link to your image and tell them they are welcome to download it for their student's computer screens

then come back here and say "Take THAT, you c-index, you!!"

I am going to get unbelievably picky with this image, because there really isn't anything wrong with it...I think you've done a very creative and meaningful piece of work. Here's my ONLY, extremely nick-picking criticism...when you were 'blackening' the background, you missed a spot in between the pink shoe on the end! I told you it was picky. But, seriously, the image is outstanding. Remember, some of the people voting only vote according to their tastes...a good image does not mean its a quality image to them, it just looks pretty in front of their face! Don't let this shake your creativeness...keep 'em coming!

Jen, first of all your concerned about the cindex - stop that - it's worthless. The cindex is a bad implementation of a grading system. You have no idea of your audience or thier criteria so don't even bother yourself with the cindex. Now on to your photo. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it. I think it's a high quality, artistic shot. I do think I would like to see more shots with different camera angles on the shoes though. take 50 shots of them. take the top 3 out of those 50 and post them. Take a page from bean811 and become very critical of yourself. The one thing I would mention if I were to try to be critical of this would be to suggest cloning out the black logo in the bottom of the shoes.

thanks, rob. your suggestions are good ones. i took this shot through a store window and consequently had no control of how they were displayed. i had to watch out for glare off the glass. cloning out the shoe maker name is certainly do-able but i'm way too lazy. please forgive me for that. thanks for the comment on c-scores. i wish they didn't exist.
