Question

The most prominent depth cue in this example is texture gradient, which refers to the way texture appears to change as objects move farther away. The sand at Zane's feet appears more detailed and coarse, while the sand down the beach appears to blur together, creating a gradient effect. Relative size, interposition, and light and shadow are not as relevant in this example.
