Description
Captured very early morning on 12/14/13, just one of 139 similar shots I've taken over the past few months, depicting the tracks on soft dirt left by workers and heavy equipment during our current freeway widening project. The incessant pounding of the pile drivers is most unnerving.
I had originally intended on making a collage of this subject matter today, but I'm just too lazy.

Nice capture. If I didn't know better, those tracks were made by a huge tennis shoe. :-)

I love the crossing/recrossing of the tracks, and the pattern they make incorporating the loose gravel toward the top of the shot. Masterful capture of this scene, Harry! In the wrong light this would be completely unnoticeable, you have a keen eye!

There's been many a mystery solved by matching tire tread marks with suspect vehicles...are you helping the LAPD by any chance. lol. Good shooting my friend. This makes for a fascinating subject.

I love your 'Making tracks' series and this is my favorite of them. Wonderful textures made so dramatic by the lighting. I saw a sculpture (Ballerina 1, by Ho Baron) yesterday, and thought of this image. It was of a surreal ballerina and its chest looked very much like tire tracks. I could imagine the artist seeing tracks like these and thinking, "Man, that's beautiful. I got to get it into a sculpture!" Whatever his inspiration, the wonderful lines and textures here, would be great inspiration for a sculptor, and its all so beautifully captured by your exquisite use of light. I love the blue stones at the top, the upward sweep of the two dominate tracks joining together, the track on the right that refuses to be trampled out by footprints, and the wispy parallel lines on the left. Very beautiful capture and great series!
