Critter Tracks

I drove out to Cape Henlopen with my partner and his sister yesterday with the objective to shoot another waterworks montage. I did that. However, we also found these bird tracks on the dunes. The angle of the eastern side of the dune and the sun conspired to create the perfect light, and we all marveled at the subtle gradations in the sand and the funny little critter tracks.

What strikes me about this beautiful photo is the total lack of scale. It could be what it is, a miniature of the passage of small creatures cross a small patch of sand, or an aerial photo of a dessert with the tracks of caravans slowly softening in the wind.
