At first this photo was kind of creepy, then I just thought it was a great way to draw people in to sell shoes. mydrawingnumberone is an Etsy shop filled with vintage goods, but the images for the shoes were just so compelling that I had to write about them. The seller has an interesting eye, and several ways to photograph the shoes as you’ll see below. But the image of those legs dangling with the gold ballet flats made me immediately click on it. Any other way and I may not have.
Upon closer examination, I realized someone wasn’t hanging, but she retouched a stool or other surface out of the photo – or I could be wrong. I think it’s genius.
What do you think, creepy or a good way to present shoes?

I love them. The dangling shoes is kind of creepy (hanging there) but I quickly got used to it, and it really shows off the shoes to be freed of the weight of gravity.
