Round Robin Photo Challenges: Shoes

The latest Round Robin is on shoes.
Now normally I would have been
very excited about this.
I love shoes.
I have some great shoes.
But I was sick the past few weeks.
Like really, really sick.
So my creativity and energy
were nonexistent.
I had grand plans to go to some nearby
stables and take pictures of horseshoes.
I was going to go see my nephew and take
pictures of his cute little baby shoes.
I was determined to find some
interesting shoes, darn it.
I wanted ballet slippers and clown shoes!!!
But in the end I just took some photos of my own
shoes in my own house at the last minute.
So here you go.
Pictures of my current favorites:
brown patent pumps (4-inch heels!!) with
a cute buckle detail from Linea Paolo.
Yes, I am 6-feet tall. Yes, I do wear 4-inch heels.




Bonus shot: These are olive green suede pumps
with an ankle strap. Also 4-inch heels.
They were a cool deal at $30.
I don't wear them often, but at that price,
I had to have them.
I love the contrasting texture
on the heels and straps.


So, next time around I will try to do better.
I will try to be more creative.

I'm so sorry you've been so sick! It's been a rough winter for a lot of people. Too bad you weren't able to follow your grander plans (I've been there!), but what you have here is nonetheless interesting and well photographed. Feel better, and we'll catch you next time!

I'm sorry you've been sick! And I know what you mean about foiled plans. I had bigger ambitions for this one too, but things got in the way. Still, these are some very cool shots of very cool shoes. I especially like the diagonal line and composition on the last one.

Hope you're well soon!
