IT IS A MAGIC OF TIME
Night shot

SORE WA TOKI NO MAHOU

Hi ga Kureru  / The day falls into the twilight
Sore wa Toki no Mahou  / It is a magic of time
Asu Onaji Toki  / The same time tommorrow
Mata Chigau Mahou  / there'll be another magic
Sore wa Iro ga Kaori ni  / It is when colours turn to flavours,
Kaori ga Iro ni Kawaru Toki  / and flavours turn to colours
Soshite Kage wa Kagirinai  / And it is when
Ao ni Tokeru  / shadows melt into deep blue

As we climbed towards the Old city, the fog was getting thicker every step of the way. It was cold and wet and the downtown city mysteriously disappeared, encased in a ghostly cloak. But the lonely alley was beautiful and we were there! :-)

Although twilight was behind us, I've heard it almost instantly, Vangelis – Twilight theme from the marvelous The City album.

  7. Such an atmospheric shot. Fantastic. I would prefer the person to be further down the path and therefore more to the left, personally.

    I do love the added person in there for the extra suspense.
