yep, fits the theme. :)
 
Had to check those weren't my feet!!!
 
Looks like an easy take on the theme for week 1. Diagonal of the flooring works well.
 
Self portrait by Boots?!;)
 
Well it fits the theme and gets you off the mark - an interesting take on the theme too (y)
 
That's a different take on the theme and the perspective works really well - you must be much taller than little me as I feel almost dizzy! :D
Good luck with your 52.
Thanks Andrea... I did have a safety harness on, you just can't see.
 
Highly inaccurate description as your handle is Boots and these are Shoes (or ARE they?) :D :D :D :D
 
Week 2 - Incomplete

I used to love this show when I was a kid!
 
It certainly meets the theme. Thinking out of the box as well.
 
Great quick submission... I can;t be the only one wondering how you;ve achieved this??

Thanks Graham. How did I do it? Well, you start experimenting with a teleportation device...

Seriously, two images, one with me wrapped in bandages, and another of the wall behind (note to self, would have much more impact with a patterned wall), then mask in Photoshop to reveal the wall rather than the top of my head. The hardest part was wrapping my own head in bandages - Mrs Boots doesn't really approve.
 
WIth you now!
The top left section looked like it was from 'behnd' your head and we were seeing the 'inside ' of the bandage. Good visual effect though!

Ah yes, that was just pure dumb luck! It is around the front of my head, but it does look like it's behind. The fancy Special Effects departments in Hollywood do show us the inside of the bandages at the back - I have no idea how I would do that.
 
Clever Clogs Award of the week I reckon. Nice one!
