Brief Summary (Extended Summary)
A book of impressionistic landscapes and interiors showing footprints and shadows during different seasons and times of day.
Of Special Note
The book shows different materials in which footprints can be left (mud, sand, and snow) and how they are erased.  The book also shows how the shadows depend on having a light source and how the shapes of shadows change in time.  The book emphasizes the constant change (and impermanence) of footprints and shadows.
