Trying something new
I'm trying something new with my shoes. What do you think? Any pointers?

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

Outside the tourist area photos.
These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Tof met die veters, mooi gevonden :)
Dankjewel Leon :-)
Nice shot. i`m wondering where I can find this reflective surface.
in my opinion in the first photo, there is too much foreground. You can crop for a better composition.
Nice shots.
The one thing I do notice in Image number one is the textured background in the reflection (behind the shoes). Was that on purpose? I find it is competing with the 'texture' material of the shoe (the reflected shoe that is), plus it isn't matching up with the nice smooth blue tone background above that has no texture.
Nice shots, clean prod.
On the second one though, I feel like the tag is a bit off-centered (nothing you can do in post though). On the post processing, I think work could be done on the laces (I love the idea by the way). The seem to bleed. I would maybe reduce the saturation and luminosity for the reds, and put some high-pass to get back a bit more texture (especially on the red and whites laces). Also, I would clean the edges and probably try to straighten them up a bit (with liquefy).
Still, the idea is great and the shoe is really clean.
