    Footsteps in time

    Saw these in a parking lot, I am fairly sure that the lot was poured in the early 60's, when I see something like this, I wonder what the story was.

    Re: Footsteps in time

    Byron, i like imagining what the story could be here too. I like the overall aesthetic of the image with the soft earth color and the texture. I feel that cropping out the horizontal lines from the crack near the top and forming a square image with only two footprints looks better. Three foot prints are fine but the line seems to cut the image into two parts and feels awkward in that way.
    Still, very good
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    Re: Footsteps in time

    Could you get there at another time (or at night with a flashlight?) so the lighting isn't so even. Some shadows would give the image a lot more depth.

    BTW Although I don't have a problem with the image as presented, Garys idea of a square crop might indeed make for a stronger image.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Re: Footsteps in time

    Love this shot and the concept. The idea of night or late evening with a flashlight is cool too...it is a little eerie and I too wonder who what when where and why. Good idea!
