Fossilised Footprint?

trebor28 · 2011-05-10 15:43:21

i just want to declare that this is not a hoax, on my part at least. found a big rock with the following on it. i forgot to put something down for size reference, but the rounded toes are about the size of a €2 coin or slightly bigger. is it just my imagination or is there some other reason fr it?

It could be a worn footprint. or it could be a coincidentally formed mark made with water erosion. Hard to say from that really but if there are more then it would be a footprint.

The roundness of the 'toes' just looks too flawless and round for me...
