New shoes!

These are my new trail shoes which arrived today. They are beautiful. They are to replace the shoes that did not survive the Edge Hill run. Here. The old pair also turned out to be too small so I decided I could justify treating myself to these.

I spent half an hour faffing about with them trying to get an interesting and inventive shot. I photographed them from every angle, even shots inside the shoe (not a very interesting image, trust me!) and I like this one the best. I think it looks like a reflection.

There is a small blizzard blowing outside and I am enjoying reading and pottering about in the warmth. Reading is definitely one of life's great pleasures.
