The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Emptiness


The usefulness of a cup is in its emptiness.

I like the shadow and the light in this, Carraol. The narrowness of the passageway adds to the tension you have captured.

Good in B&W

That is really a dark alley at night. Wow. And an empty one during the day.

This also could have been your post for Theme Day. Looks menacingly as Abe points out.
