รูปภาพ Feet First คอลเลคชั่น ถ่ายรูปเท้าท่องเที่ยวทั่วโลก

ไอเดียนี้เกิดจากขณะนั่งบนไบรตันบีช (อังกฤษ) ในปี 2005 กับแฟนของเจ้าของภาพที่ชื่อVerity เจ้าของภาพก็คิดว่ามุมมองของเท้าของเราที่ชี้ออกไปในทะเลจะทำให้ภาพที่ดี นับตั้งแต่นั้นมาเค้าได้ถ่ายลักษณะนี้อย่างต่อเนื่องจนเก็บรวบรวมภาพถ่ายกว่า 90 ภาพในจำนวนนั้นมีรูปที่ถ่ายในประเทศไทยด้วยครับ และในปี 2011 ก็มีเท้าคู่ที่สาม นั่นก็คือ เท้า

Flea Market. Jeu de Balle, Brussels.

Flea Market. Jeu de Balle, Brussels. Wherever we go Verity has an incredible knack of finding markets and today was no exception as while roaming the streets of Brussels we chanced upon an incredible Flea market full to the brim with trinkets, gems and long lost treasures that had us exploring the tightly filled Jue de Balle for hours. As usual I had to refrain Verity from buying half the market and eventually managed to drag her away to sample some of Brussels finest beverages at the aptly named shop 'Beer Mania'.

Treking in The Golden Triangle, Thailand.

Maekok river, Chang Rai, Thailand. Today we scored a new Personal Best in our self-invented game 'how many types of transport can you take in one day'. It all started early in the morning getting a lift in the back of a pickup truck down a very bumpy dirt road. After that we hopped aboard a long-tail boat, a bigger boat, a tuk-tuk, two buses and last but not least the back of a scooter. This is something I love about travelling in South East Asia as the process of getting from A to B, is often such an adventure.

Swimming pool, Mui Ne, Vietnam.

Cable car. Sentosa Island, Singapore.

Whit Sundays, Australia. Verity's Birthday! Despite it being stinger season (when the seas are swarming with killer jellyfish) we decided to head out on a boat trip around the beautiful Whit Sundays. The scenary was beautiful and we braved the waters for a spot of snorkeling where we saw some incredible sea life. The next day the Whitsundays experienced terrible storms leaving a group of tourists stranded on a tour boat for three days. Lucky escape for us.

In our beloved camper-van, Australia. After a long days drive we couldn't find anywhere to park our van in the dark, so opted for a quiet field that seemed out of the way. At 6am we were hastily awoken by the sound of a tractor driving in circles around our van. As I poked my head out of the window an angry farmer shouted at me "the campsites down the road". It turned out we'd parked in one of his fields and he wasn't best pleased. After making our apologies we promptly departed and drove two hours to meet our good friends Sam and Anna who live in Glebe, Sydney. Sam's band were playing a gig that night, which we went to see. After spending four months travelling, it's great to see some familiar faces!

Thermal pool. Rotorua, New Zealand. Spent the day in Rotorua, which is famous for it's geothermal activity and distinct underlying smell of egg. Took every opportunity to dip our feet in the smelly thermal pools, which helped heal our tired legs after all the walking we've been doing. A lazy day.

Street sign. Valparaiso, Chile.

Climbing Volcanoe Villarrica (2847m). Pucon, Chile. The weather finally cleared and we got the green light to climb Volcan Villarrica. We began a slow but steady ascent at 5am in the dark. After two hours of climbing we stopped to fix crampons. Four hours later we finally reached the top and were greeted by a beautiful clear blue sky and incredible views across Chile. The volcano let out a deep rumble just as a girl in our group was standing by the crater edge. Our guide shouted "run for your life", which terified her. Was very funny. On the way down the guide gave us sacks to sit in and we slid down the snow - a section that took two hours to climb, took 20 minutes to slide down. Great fun. When we finally got to the bottom we took a bus to the local thermal pools - a great way to end a tiring day.

Lago Guiterrez (1700m), Parque Nacional Nahuel Huapi, Argentina.

Autumn leaves. Parque Nacional Nahuel Huapi, Argentina. After hitch hiking out to Lago Gutierrez we began our walk through an incredible forest brimming with the yellows, oranges and greens of autumn up towards Refugio Frey, one of the many mountain huts located around Barriloche. Every corner we turned presented another stunning photographic opportunity and I was keen to try out my new Manfrotto tripod. Eventually we made it to the refugio where we met a group of mountaineers who shared some of their soup with us. Unfortunately for us the clock was ticking so we soon began our descent back down through the beautiful forest only just making it out of the forest before the sun set. Ended the day by polishing off another bottle of Argentinean wine - delightful.

Cooling off our feet and testing my new Gore-tex boots. Argentina.

Mosaic. Argentina.

Iguassu Falls National Park, Brazil.

Tafi del Valle, Argentina.

Rio de las Conchas, also known as Quebrada de Cafayate, Argentina. Took the morning bus through the windy mountain road to Cafayate. The bus kept stopping to pick up school children who all had rosy red cheeks from the harsh high-altitude sun. After arriving in Cafayate we quickly found a hostel and headed straight out with a group of people who were visiting Las Conchas gorge - an incredible landscape full of multicolored rock formations. While walking across a dried riverbed I couldn't resist another Feet First shot of all the dried footprints in the mud. For dinner we polished of another amazing steak and pears cooked in Dulche-de-Leche. You can certainly eat well in Argentina.

Tilcara, Ruinas del Pucara. Argentina. The dog followed us round all day!

Kollpa Laguna, Bolivia.

Reserva Nacional de Fauna Andina Eduardo Avaroa, Bolivia.

Arbol de Piedra, Bolivia. Day 3 of travelling in our 4X4 through Bolivia's Southern Altiplano. After 8 months travelling I can honestly say this part of the world holds the most amazing landscapes I have ever seen - bright red lakes full of Flamingos, breathtaking mountains, incredible volcanic rock formations and welcoming people who somehow manage to live in this hostile environment. I love Bolivia!

Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia. Waking at 6am we strapped our bags to the roof of the 4X4 and began to drive out to the center of the salt flats in the dark. After an hour we stopped to watch the sun rise, which slowly filled our featureless world with a rich gold glow that stretched as far as the eye could see. After 8 months travelling I can honestly say this part of the world holds the most amazing landscapes I have ever seen - bright red lakes, breathtaking volcanoes, incredible wildlife and welcoming people who somehow manage to live in this hostile environment. I love Bolivia!

Inside the mine. Potosi, Bolivia.

Isla de la Sol, Lake Titicaca, Bolivia.

Day 3 of our trek through the Andes. We climbed to our highest pass of 4500m. Glad we've had time to acclimatised to the high altitude as some of the other members of the group were really struggling. We continued our trek and descended into a beautiful valley where packs of wild horses were grazing. The weather was perfect and there was no one else on the mountain apart from us - what a beautiful place! At the end of the day we set up camp and the monk who owned the valley came to say hello with his flock of sheep. What an amazing lifestyle.

The view from Huayna Picchu. Machu Picchu, Peru.

Machu Picchu, Peru. After four days trekking through the beautiful Andes mountains we arrive at Machu Picchu. Despite all the photos we'd seen it hadn't prepared us for how incredible it is to see in person. After walking through the ruins we climbed Huayna Picchu with a US Marine that we'd met on the trek, we made it to the top in half an hour!

Playa Negra. Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Costa Rica. Hired bikes and rode along the coastal road to Puerto Viejo. Along the way we saw Sloths and Toucans sitting in the trees. When we got to Puerto Viejo we found a black sand beach.

Isla Ometepe, Nicaragua.

Ensuite hostel room. Masaya, Nicaragua. We stayed with a family that had converted a room at the back of their house into a hostel. Our room was an all-in-one toilet, shower, bedroom - what more could you want? Hitch hiked to Volcan Masaya where we got gassed out by the sulpher fumes, then soaked by the rain while walking around the crater, oh the joys of travelling in the wet season. Found a great market and bought some sugar sacks that had been adapted into bags. The locals found it funny we were buying them as I think they're usually something only the 'poor people' use.

Roátan, Bay Islands, Honduras.

Santiago Atitlàn, Guatemala. That’s Volcan Toliman in the background.

Volcanic rock. Volcàn Pacaya, Guatemala. We ended up in a dodgy Salsa club until 3am. Three hours later our alarm went off and with a rather prominent hangover we began our climb up Volcan Pacaya. Fortunately and somewhat suprisingly the two hour climb fixed our blurry heads and as we neared the top, the heat from the molten lava suddenly hit us. As you'd expect Health & Safety doesn't feature very highly on the Nicaraguan agenda and we were allowed to freely roam the surreal molten landscape and get as close to the lava as our sanity would allow us. Somewhat put off by the soles of peoples shoes starting to melt we decided to have a go at cooking the marshmallows that an entrepreneurial 12 year old had sold us. We attached the mallow to a twig and pointed it towards one of the small pockets of glowing rock that were unnervingly all around us. Unfortunately it burst into flames and fell off the stick to it's firey demise.
