This black and white photograph captures bare feet walking on rough, textured ground. The composition is tightly cropped to show only the lower portion of legs and feet, creating a sense of anonymous movement. The contrast between the dark silhouetted feet and the lighter, granular surface they traverse is stark and dramatic. Small particles of what appears to be sand or soil are visible in the textured ground, adding detail and depth to the image. The title "Transient Steps" is reflected in the ephemeral quality of the moment - footprints that will soon disappear, marking a temporary passage across this terrain.
