Monochrome Footprints on a Rocky Beach

Monochrome close-up photograph in black and white of footprints pressed into damp, rippled sand on a quiet beach, surrounded by rugged rocks. A macro shot with shallow depth of field focusing on the crisp toe and heel impressions and the tiny grains clinging to the print edges. Dramatic side lighting casts long shadows, enhancing texture and contrast between smooth wet sand and rough, grainy areas. Perimeter rocks are weathered and textured, with small pebbles and salt crusts. Background softly blurred to suggest distant shoreline, creating a calm, solitary mood.
