Oh, how we love Chuck Taylors in this family. Every one of us-we love to create custom ones off the Converse web site as well. So here's a shot I got of DS's little Chucks as he ran around outside yesterday. In keeping with this week's theme, a horizontal crop, and a vertical one. I think I prefer the vertical, it shows his baggy little jeans, too.
85mm. ss/250, f/3.2, ISO 200. Lots of random stuff done to it-a few textures, some burning, different layers, a couple of J. Gaylor brushes (graffiti) on a low opacity. Trying for a gritty, urban, but not necessarily "Urban Acid" look.

I think both are great...but I prefer the second one.
I like them both, they each convey a different feeling. I thinkI like the second one a bit better.

Nope, definitely vertical for me! Too cute!
gosh I really like the angle and textures on these!!
I like both crops for different reasons. . . :) I didn't know you could customize your Converse shoes. Maybe we'll have to try it out.
I think they are both great...but I really like the first one!

Wow...love the color of the photos. So "boy" inspired. I didn't know you could create custom ones. I am so doing that! Awesome.
I had no idea you could do this. Gonna check it out. cool shot and I like the vertical one the best!
Im loving the pp on this! I think the vertical is better...
So cute and I love the PPing on these, really bright and vibrant.
I love chucks but the only kid in my house I could convince to get some was my DD. She got grey with hearts and skull and crossbones.
You're rockin' these "different" photos friend. I like your conversions, feels gritty!
Cool! I really like the editing and I love the bottom crop.
my dh loves his chucks. great texture.
I love your PP on this. I like both versions.
These ROCK! Love #1
i really like these! the textures you've got going here really work with these photos. i prefer the first one for the same reason you stated.
way cute.. I like the vertical one the best.
Wow! I love these! I think my fave is the vertical!
Love the textures on both of these. We love Chucks in our house right now to.
I really like the vertical shot. This is a perfect photo for using texture. Chuck Taylors are a classic favorite! My kid wore them 20 years ago!
I like both, but the first is probably my favorite. Really like the conversion - very cool!
These are both great, have to agree i like the vertical better :) Super cute chucks!!
i like the 1st one---very cute!

I love the second one!
i like the first one best! love your conversions on them!
I love the conversion and feel on both of these- but I like the second a tad better. :)
Oh, I like your "gritty" look here. My favorite is the vertical because I like the touch of red at the top, and the shirt ads to the mood of the pic. Very nice! And I am still not in the habit of posting every day; therefore I can't comment every day, but I have to say that your past work is fabulous in every way. ML
You nailed the gritty urban look. Love it! And love the Chuck's. I had a purple pair when i was a kid. i need a pink pair now.
those are too cute! Love your conversion! Think I like the vertical best too!
LOVE these! Love the grungy feel to go with the jeans and those awesome shoes!
I really like what you did to these! Very cool! I want to know more about customizing your own sneakers, my DD would love that!
