...yep, that's all there is to it!

That's actually a hole in that shoe. I wonder how many people will actually realize that. It was also orange at one point. I couldn't find an orange sharpie, though....

The idea is the same as that of the refining fire. Burn away all impurities.
Also could mean that the more you get to know me, the more awesome I am! Haha.

Looks like you connected with a good number of viewers/voters. Beat your running average also. That's cool, yes? :-)

Now this is one that makes me pause to think. I'm sure there is a greater message here that I am not getting.

I think I am becoming a lover of the abstract, maybe I just year for it.... The colours the angle and the subject combine here to force the viewer to stop and ponder as to the story behind it, or is that just me? Thanks for showing me that.

Intriguing shot but hard to get a sense of personality. 7

Nice idea! I love the emphasis on the red on the bottom of the shoe... cute!

I like this shot a lot. Nice sense of depth to it, great colors (love the way that red pops). I like the way that this feels loved and well-worn, but there's this duality because it was cast away and it's alone now.
