Photography contest - sand

Please read the CONTEST GUIDELINES before participating in this contest.

Contest Goal:
It's interesting how people find use of almost anything around them. Sand for example. Lets see where one can find sand and what can be done with sand. You may take pictures of sand itself or smth made with sand: sand watch, sand sculptures, coloured sand for souvenirs... It's ok to provide pictures of a beach, but the sand must be the main object in the scene.

My daughter was walking along the beach, when I asked her why she was walking all alone, she answered ... "I'm not walking alone, HE walks with me." Which led to setting up this shot, I couldn't resist recapturing the Footprints in the Sand poem.
