'second hand'

A neighbor, a retired photographer, has offered to photograph my shoes. They would certainly benefit from a professional touch.  I will take him up on it one day.
This is the first shoe to look as though it may have been worn. There is a spot on the other side that i decided not to cover up.  I'm considering distressing the sole.

I'm now in the process of remaking the shoe I named 'too many notes'.  I separated the heel, sole and upper. I'm stretching the upper on a different last and plan to add a T and ankle strap.

I just never liked that shoe.
