This is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I agree with what people are saying about the Footprints in the Sand poem...I noticed towards the end of the picture near the cliff that it looks like the two sets of footprints turn into one set and when I was thinking about that poem, its just like when God was carrying the man through the times when God was needed the most...I LOVE this photo!!! Great Job!

Beautiful photo! I really like how everything comes together. It has alot of leading lines that take you to the end of the photograph. It makes me want to step in and be there to explore. Once again...beautiful.

I love the use of the sky as negative space here; the eye is immediately drawn to the footprints. Not too busy; one clear focal point. And the footprints are wonderful to draw the eye in their direction. Magnificently done!

I love that. Footprints in the Sand is my favorite piece of poetry, and you could really tell God was apart of this moment. Did you make those footprints yourself or did you find them that way?
