FOOTPRINTS IN SAND
Chacala, Nayarit, Mexico

“The greatest challenge was replicating what my eye saw. I used a tripod, got down low in the sand, and waited for someone to walk past me. I used a slow shutter speed to show the motion of the wave, and set the camera to its smallest aperture for greatest depth of field. What I find most significant about this image is that it illustrates how the effects of man, while seemingly great, are insignificant when compared to the forces of nature.”
