    Nothing more emotive than a single soul… walking his or her way along the Life´s corridors..
    an Eternal “bowell” of undigested energies..
    ready to transform us into..
    Exsence.

    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!
