What can you see No.2

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Hmmmm wind blowing left to right? Maybe a 3 wheeled push chair? Looks like the person pushing had to push on the right hand side of whatever the thing was. Sand looks pretty hard pack, but it looks like the person what quite upright as the toe digs in a similar amount to the heel. A windy day surely?
 
Walker has problem with left leg.
It look like the tide has taken the furthest prints out - if so, they passed before the last high tide.
However, the sand surface looks damp? so they passed after it rained.

They’ll be pulling the wheelchair behind them, on the rear 2 wheels. Middle front wheel looks a bit lighter. I guess they’ll be walking backwards too.

Waking uphill, front of the foot pressed in further, pushing down on the pram handle making the front wheel lighter.

It's a westerly beach with winds from the east, just after some light rain a lady with two bigger dogs (or one running in circles) passed with dog in front. She was pushing a three wheeled pram. The beech slopes a bit here and the local rock is igneous and the tide has been out some time and I'd guess is making its way in.

Really interesting comment regarding the issue with the left leg. What indicates or suggests that to you ?
 
The person's tracks seem to increasingly deviate from the origin at the bottom of the photo. I suggest that it's possibly someone / parent following a youngster on a 3-wheeler bike. That could explain the lighter track on the middle / front wheel? Plus dogs, of cours

Good thinking. The middle track " is " feint. Do we think the gait and straddle is normal of ? Walking ??

Interesting. Please show your workings for all those as I'm fascinated.

It looks like there is more weight being put on the left wheel and more weight on the right foot. It's possible the wheeled object is one of those three-wheeled walking aids - just an alternative idea :)

The shadows are at the front, assuming northern hemisphere, that means they are SE to SW. I've seen that kind of patterning of dry patches sand when it rains on dry sand (dry lower, wet top) and then starts to dry. For it to dry and get damp and then dry, takes time, so suggests it was afternoon. Afternoon sun with the shadows on the footprints gives direction. The lack of waves indicates an offshore breeze. The uniform dark sand, indicates that it isn't a pure quartz beach and is typical of areas of igneous rock. You also show flattish "shadows" offshore. These remind me of glacially smoothed areas.

There is a slight imbalance to the gait (like many of us!): the left foot points almost straight ahead whilst the right is angled outwards slightly. I would say walking as the toe portion of the clearer signs doesn't show any "digging in" as might be seen when running or jogging.
