Hmmm ... decent enough pic Paul ... but ...:thinking:

Is it just me or is there something a little odd about it ...:suspect:

Cannot quite put my finger on it but ... as in ... how did you make them (footprints) ... and rake it (the sand !) ... :shrug:

:D

The beach is man made and never gets washed by the sea (Malaga Spain). So the sand is really grainy and every day a tractor thing rakes it. Hence the sand and the lines.

Footprints come from some sea birdie. They and the sea at the bottom are the only "natural" things there.

Ah ... thanx for the explanation Paul ... thought the lines in the sand looked unnatural ...:D

That looks like some big 'birdie' too ... :eek:

I think the pic may have had more impact if the prints had been more diagonal ... imo of course ...:thinking:

Still an interesting photo though m8 ...:thumbs:
