Two Feet - (PowerHouseCreatives Contest) - The World At Our Feet

It's Feet for Days

One of the first few contests that were ever hosted by @jaynie and me when back in the days we were still known as the #steemitbloggers. This contest idea originated from @jaynie and as you all know, from the title, she has something for feet.
The Powerhousecreatives community has people scattered all over the world and so we have decided to create a photographic contest where the members will capture the “world at their feet” in the most CREATIVE way they can think of.

Two Feet

My feet have never really inspired me, they’re just there and I’ve never really though about them much unless they had been injured or something. I learned in the Army that a soldier’s feet are the most important thing that he/she, has, and he/she has to take care of them. There were only “he’s” when I was in.

My feet have done well by me. They’ve never given me any problems at all, but now that I am older, the toenail on my left foot’s big toe tends to dig in and get ingrown some, and I first notice it at the gym when I’m running on the elliptical machine; it will start hurting.

I used to get pedicures from the lady that cuts my hair. She started it as a new way to earn some extra income and I’d always go along with her new services to help her out a bit. Anyway, she used to make fun of my feet and say they were the softest feet she ever felt, and we’d both laugh.

She stopped doing the pedicures after about 3 years, as her hands had begun to start bothering her and she couldn’t do it anymore. I haven’t looked into getting pedicures anywhere else, mostly because of the horror stories I’ve heard about serious infections sprouting up in customers of those places in the malls.

The photograph of my feet is taken in my home, on the hall rug. I really wanted to go to the beach and get a photo in the sand, but it’s been really chilly here the past few days.

As far as creativity goes, I thought my feet would look better on a rug than on tile, and besides, the tile is cold. I thought I had them in line with the lines on the rug but it’s obvious I’m a bit off the mark on that one.

My feet serve me as kind of a thermometer of my comfort. If my feet are cold, then I’m cold, even if it’s not really cold. If they are warm, chances are I’m feeling hot at that time.

All in all, I like my feet very much, and it’s really their fault that I haven’t paid as much attention to them as they’d like, because they’ve always been good and quiet, doing their job.
