This is, in my opinion, a masterpiece. The composition is such that although no people can be seen, one senses they are there, perhaps watching one. Yes, I get that feeling that all eyes are upon me as I wander through this narrow alley. The lights on inside the shop and the scooter attest to the fact that there is commerce in the works. To note other features, the sidings and other elements of construction add to the simplicity of this work. The lighting is excellent.

AS ONE WHO HAS LIVED IN JAPAN AND LOVED JAPAN WITH ALL MY HEART, I FIND THIS TRIBUTE TO THOSE WHO HAVE PASSED THIS WAY A TRIBUTE THAT IS BEAUTIFUL, YET HUMBLE AND MOST RESPECTFUL. MY ADMIRATION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S TALENT IS GREAT; SHE IS A BRILLIANT PHOTOGRAPHER.
