Photohunt: Shoes

The photohunt theme is shoes. I decided to organize my shoes on the deck, photograph them for the hunt, and make a goodwill trip with ones I'm unlikely to wear. The lighting wasn't right so I cropped out sections that worked and made the collage. You can click inside the collage if you want to see an enlargement.
Many of the shoes are repeated in some of the individual sections so I don't have as many shoes as it looks like above. Although my photography isn't up to this standard, it sort of reminded me of a book I received for Christmas one year, The Material World by Peter Menzel. It's a wonderful book with photographs from across the world which shows all sorts of different cultures and people with the material objects in their individual worlds. I guess this would be the material girl and her shoes.

Note- I did not buy all of these shoes. I wear the same size shoes as my sisters and when they get shoes that aren't quite right for them, I benefit by receiving their extras. One of the perks to being the youngest of three daughters. Lifelong habits of sharing continue on. You can almost pick out which ones I bought: think hiking boots, sneakers, comfortable, one pair of red walking shoes, and those are the ones I bought. Nice to have options though, when I occasionally dress up, and for that I have my sisters to thank. A side note on the red (wine colored) shoes. I think of them as my ruby slippers. I usually wear them to oncology appointments in case I need to click my heels and go home.
