Feet first

Tom Robinson, an English photographer, takes photos of his and his girlfriend's feet as they travel the world (from Mexican beaches to Chilean volcanos to New Zealand's thermal pools). Don't his photos make you want to take your feet somewhere fabulous?

(Thanks, Cozette)

  2. What a great idea!

    Your feet can't really take a bad picture..or have a bad hair day.

    It's an interesting concept, that makes a great shot!

  3. Love it :) Whenever I travel alone I use this "strategy"...can only take so many close-up shots of my own face!

  4. Funny, Joanna. I have pix like this from everywhere I've ever gone. I really ought to capitalize on my whimsy rather than merely amuse myself (as my mother has nagged me about forever). Perhaps the taxi trip & cat's vet appt. would not be stinging my bank account so very much today.

    Have a great day.

  12. i have some friends that do the same thing. it makes such a huge difference when the people actually have nice feet. i HATE when people post pictures of their ugly feet, or toenail fungus or something. some people are lacking a certain mental filter :)

  18. I love this!!! My boyfriend has a "special pose" like this that he has a photo of everywhere he's been. But his is an awkward, symmetrical, stoical pose (and alone, except he does have one at Disneyland with Mickey)... so I like this one much better!

  56. Awesome, I totally do this too! I have a whole collage of them framed on my wall with my feet in different shoes and places from handmade sandals in Argentina, Chacos looking down the Colorado River, to rockclimbing shoes hanging over a cliff. I love it.
