I saw the box Y & it would make Jano nearly 40 years old..............Don't tell her I told you:-)

Ummm i hate to butt into this thread but I never said how old my baby shoes were... and never will :) Too bad the box isn't there on mine.... i think that would be a good clue too bad it's gone :) jano

These do look older than Jano's baby shoes, sorry Y. These look to be 35 years old:-)

Thanks for the comments all. Rod, LOL I have not tied this ever myself, It was by my Mom, perhaps on a more wiggly Yvonne. I just found the shoes and the dress and slip all wrapped up in tissue in a box. The shoe is discolored because it is so uh....young. Yvonne

Great detail and tonal quality Yvonne with the DOF front and back. Love the title. I also like the vertical layout. Nice work. jano

Pretty white shoe but if you hadn't said it was a christening shoe I never would have known how small it must be. Nice detail on the shoe though. CJ

Great macro of tying shoes ! :)

This is really well done Y & all your own work:-) I love the tension created by the strange looping of the lace through the middle eye.
Just me opinion you understand & in no way am I suggesting you thread your lace's the way my Mum did mine:-)
Very good shot.

This is lovely, Yvonne! I really like the macro and the near monotone quality of the image. Very nice indeed! ~Sharon

No PS program was harmed in the experiment with this photo. (Smile) Yvonne
