    Nothing more emotive than a single soul… walking his or her way along the Life´s corridors..

  • Melanie  McQuoid

    Melanie McQuoid, 3 months ago

    It was taken in Japan in Shiga prefecture. The Museum is called The Miho Museum and it was designed by I. Pei. If you like this shot have a look at “Journey” as it was taken in the same tunnel.

    Neither photo has been photoshopp-ed, just converted the first one to black and white with In-Camera editing.

    Thanks everyone!
