Our company had a little lunchtime challenge to recreate a famous sports image. I doubt any of those philistines will appreciate the image I chose so I thought I'd try my luck here.

I ran out of time (and patience) with the freebie online photo editor I was using, would look infinitely better if I could just have lightened the edges or cropped my image a bit better. Maybe something to play with this evening over a whisky...

Simply recline in a comfy seat wearing a pair of flat pedal shoes.

Haha! Awesome.

What editor did you use? I've only got whatever is free online...

That's with Gimp (free) - first time I've used it instead of Photoshop.

What photo is the foot one?

For anyone who hadn't realised (although thanks for the LoLs Tillydog) this isn't supposed to be a Photoshop exercise, it's supposed to be recreating poses with things you have at home as a self isolation diversion tactic!

I took a photo on a flight, wearing Spesh 2F0 shoes.

The rest, as they say, is history...
