Consumerism (31/365)

I went shopping for my brothers football boots he needed for school. I took a photo of the miles and miles of different sports shoes displayed at ludicrous prices and went with an idea I had. That idea was me, stood with £500 cash in my hands, trying to spread a message about consumerism and our desire for materialistic things. I'm not going to get all deep here, because that'd be hypocritical.

In the words of Madonna;

We're living in a material world and I am a material girl.

In all honesty, I made this image to challenge myself. I rarely do edits like these, and I've never been taught how to. With each new photo I edit, I'm learning new things.
