A resurfaced Ron DeSantis campaign photo from 2015 is making waves because of a bizarre detail.

The photo from his Senate campaign has a beach setting and features a quote from DeSantis’ wife, Casey, in which she calls him “a man of integrity and honour.”

However, eagle-eyed people managed to find the original photo from a Flickr account called “DeSantis for Senate” and noticed something weird about it: Neither DeSantis nor his wife left footprints in the sand.

Many people noticed the lack of sand prints and thoroughly mocked DeSantis.

No footprints 🤔 Right foot “cocked”

W the beautiful beaches in Florida, are they afraid of the red tide or flesh eating bacteria seaweed or toxic algae ?

Oh dear, here's man of integrity, meatball Ron standing with his wife in a studio in front of a beach poster. Ron is so unwoke that he doesn't leave footprints. Literally. pic.twitter.com/RzkYGMlHXp

I didn’t know it was possible to make a beach photo shoot creepy, but Ron DeSantis managed to do it. Is anything real about this man? https://t.co/CSIGgXqgrr

Others “improved” the photo with their own photoshop choices.
