These are the footers in Megaprojects, a book I designed on the topic of large construction projects. It is 515 pages and 15 chapters. The pages are 8"x10" with a narrow photo across the bottom of every page (1½" x 16" on the spread). I changed the photo in each chapter. Most of them, as you can see, are related to land transportation.
Here is a list of all of them, from top to bottom:
