Men’s shoes are always an interesting subject to photograph. Fortunately, I know several gentlemen who are willing to indulge me in my quest to take the perfect shoe photo.
These shots were taken outside the Perot Museum. I like the rugged outdoor effect created by the petrified log contrasting with the formal men’s shoe, slacks and dress socks.
This shot was taken downtown Dallas – in the underground passageway between Reunion Tower and Union Station. I liked how the floor was at an incline and the colors seemed to complement each other. As an aside, is everyone aware of this underground passageway? This was a new discovery for me.

Notes: You may be wondering why bother taking photos of shoes? It’s good practice, it’s not the typical photo you’d take of a friend and it forces you to see things in different ways.
I’m right with you. It’s a different topic, but an interesting one as well. With Spring time now in underway, a similar fun topic is pedicures. I love seeing the fun colors and different designs that peopel use to express themselves. It’s like a hidden canvas that not many people notice.
