A shoe and a footstep
Uploaded: October 20, 2007
In September 2005 I visited Rotterdam Zoo. In the elephants' house, I saw elephants' footsteps on the concrete (?) floor. So I took my shoe off to compare how much larger was an elephant's foot compared to mine.
I cropped and softened the photo a bit and made slight changes in image balance.

What a unique image! I love the perspective and the leaf seems to add a third layer for comparision. Well seen. #4955717Husain Akhtar October 21, 2007
How very imaginative of you Tiia! Terrific work! #4955845Tiia Vissak October 21, 2007
Thanks!I just walked into the Elephants' House and saw the footprint... I didn't add the leaf or the water, they were already there. The only thing I added was my shoe.
