The Dark Alley

This is where Jack the ripper's third victim was found - or at least that is the initial feeling I get from the alley. There is something alluring about it; maybe it’s the way the light brightens the walls. It seems that the light is just hovering there. It reveals the wall and the walk up to the light but beyond the light you wonder - what lurks in the darkness?

I took this picture in Nashville, Ten. This dark little alley was amid a very busy and bright downtown, and that is what attracted me to it. The dark alley.
