Can You Tell I've Been Busy...

I've been doing a lot of running around lately getting shoe photos and have been just as busy working on this piece.  Stay tuned as I will be writing more about this and appending to this post in the coming days...

Mexican Inspiration

Very rarely do I come across someone wearing some flashy colours, let alone being able to photo-shoot shoes this fancy.  I knew I couldn't pass up on this kind of opportunity, especially she was here only because her Mexican brother lives in Canada.

Much thanks to Michelle for being so patient with the poses and to her husband, Miguel for being open about my blog notion.  I'm very happy about the way this collage turned out.

Here are the rest of the pictures taken as shown in the thumbnail set.

Nicely done Michelle.  You said:  "Maybe I like my shoes now" after we were done the photo shooting.  Well, you definitely will now!!

Caught My Slanderer Red-Handed (K.D.A.)!!

For those who have been following my ordeal to bring you all some of my most creative work, you know it has not been easy.  Being naive about how women work at first, caused me to put a lot of guilt on myself that I had no business bearing.  Had I not gone through the Nanaimo Athletic Club - Frontrunners experience, I would've thought I was the bad guy during this latest interaction.

I ran into this girl by happenstance, coming out of the EB Games store.  She was stationed at the Ben Moss jewelry counter, the angle counter pointing towards Tim Hortons.  I was not expecting this girl to be there and I definitely did not expect her to be wearing some cool kicks.  Our interaction happened on Monday, Oct. 24, 2016 - 12:04 p.m. in the middle-right side of this pic:

I presented my business card to her while she told me how she obtained these shoes.  Afterwards, I asked her gently for a couple of poses so that I could post her shoes on my blog.  She not only gave me permission to take pictures of her shoes but she was more than willing to give me a couple of poses, as shown here.

Yet, she decided she could get away with slandering me on a Facebook Rant & Rave group, especially knowing that I'm not a member.  Well guess what?  There are people who support what I do and they are part of that Facebook group...and this was brought to my attention.

Fact:  

• Yes, you were with your baby because the pic shows the metal bar of a baby stroller.
• Yes, "I couldn't help but (to) notice your shoes..." is something that I would say.
• Yes, you did tell me you had just come out from the gym.

False:

• No, I didn't take pictures of your feet. 
• No, I didn't take pictures of your "modeling" before you gave me your consent.
• No, your shoes weren't pink Nikes. They were a pair of Under Armours with a baby blue body that just happened to have some pink accents (tinting more towards purple) to them.
• No, you didn't literally run out of the mall. You couldn't. You had your baby stroller with you.
• No, I never said I was following you.
• And last but not least, how could you say you were alone when our interaction happened in the mall, with a couple of clerks working on the other side of the jewelry counter??

Final Thoughts:

The key discrepancy here is the shoes.  Why did you choose to use "pink Nikes" in describing our interaction?  I know!!  It was what was used by C.K.'s henchman (girl) to set me up for the suspension.

Click on the block of text above for the full story!!

You read my blog and then you used C.K.'s tactic to draw attention to yourself, a tactic that is tarnishing her reputation.  Do you really want to wear her germy coat that represents criminal behaviour??

Remember what I mentioned about C.K.'s motive for dissuading me for taking pictures of shoes?  That's right.  The women were curious about my unusual requests and that took the spotlight off of her.  She got jealous and tried to twist what the women were really saying about me.  When she felt that I was starting to get suspicious it was when she lied to the gym management and owners to get me kicked out of the gym and to scare me with a death threat to make me believe in the huge conspiracy against me to forever dissuade me from my hobby and to cover her tracks.  That's a huge risk for her reputation if I ever figured out the truth.  Now I'm seriously considering imposing the same accountability for Kassandra here.

Let me tell you something, Kassandra.  C.K. slandered me because I was taking the attention away from her and didn't do it to gain attention.  She did it to regain attention and set me up with death threat to sidetrack me from finding out the truth.  If I ever approached those women and if there were any discrepancies in their responses, she would look stupid and lose instant credibility.  In other words, she was afraid of being embarrassed.

Now, you need to re-read my blog to see how your motive to draw attention to yourself clouded your ability to comprehend what it is C.K. was really trying to do.  If you wanted attention, you should've stuck around and given me more poses so I could feature your shoes for the right reasons.  Now I'm going to give you all the attention you could've imagined...but for reasons that are in conflict to your best interest, the same way I handled C.K..

The next person who slanders me and if I find out who it is, I will reveal the full identity of the culprit without hesitation!!  As for you Kassandra, after I post this article, you will now be on a tighter watch.  Be a good girl and keep your mouth shut or I will reveal to the world who you are and you will never have to worry about drawing attention to yourself again - infamous attention, that is...

Read part 2.  There's more to this story.  A Frontrunners staff may have been fired for piggy-backing on K.D.A.'s slander!!
