hi jimmy

this would be a lovely image, apart from the pair of legs in white shorts in the top left. any way you can PS those out? it would improve things no end.

other than that the curve of the footsteps & the way the lady looks back over her shoulder as if encouraging us to follow is very well done.

very inviting! could have been improved i think with a slightly tilted camera angle, there seems to be a lot of open space on the right hand side which needs filling, also clone the white shorts person out definatly if you can! lovely work!

Hi Jimmy

i agree with seanf, the par of legs on the top left are distracting.

In general the photo is very good.

I like the effect of the footsteps in the sand and it's a good idea the medium in black & white, and the composition is good.Perhaps if the woman was a little nearer of the camera her image was so much clear. Well done!

Great capture! The DOF and clarity is perfect. I also like the sepia touch very much. Thanks for sharing!

I like the mood that you have created in this shot of Footsteps. It could complement to poem "Footprints"
