Daily Photo Idea One Photographic Inspiration Every Day

Footprints in the Sand

Today's photo idea is footprints in the sand.  You could use human footprints or dog paw prints.  This shot can work well on sand dunes or on the beach.  If you don't happen to be near any sand, you could take footprints in the mud or, better yet, in the snow.

Footprints are a good way to capture an image of a journey or long distances.  It can also provide a good sense of scale if, for example, you juxtaposition an adult's footprint next to a small child's print.  If you have any more footprint related photo ideas, leave them in the comments!
