Thank you! I hadn’t considered entering but I will. Consider, that is. I’ve seen some exceptionally beautiful still lifes on line recently – Marcelo Leonard and Anisja.
Have you seen the film, “An Angel at My Table”? It’s about Janet Frame and was directed by Jane Campion. Shoes are a powerful symbol in the film and taking off shoes can signify leaving an old life, stepping out of a role that no longer satisfies.
I love the way the shoes in your photo are turned sole to sole and overlapping only slightly.
I have seen it Mrs Daffodil, and I remember liking it but I don’t remember many details. These shoes are from the same lane as in Someone’s Bedroom’ and Camouflage’.
I’ll be in the vicinity tomorrow so I’m going to take another look.

great minimalist composition with complex emotional impact!
That’s a very generous appraisal, Mark. Thank you.
Excellent.
Thanks, Rabirius.

As always I love the placement / composition, S.E…
I think it’s pretty cool how that fifth ‘drip’ is ‘pointing’ to the five ellipsis, too…
🙂
I think composition is my forte, Robert. I’m certainly no master of light.
I agree with Mark’s ‘less is more’ statement – powerful work
Thank you, Katrien. 🙂
