Capturing the junction of the alleyways in a panoramic view shows how the alleyways interlock with each other and that they eventually connect back to the main streets. Buildings are so packed and dense in the city, resulting in these narrow alleyways and also the complex system of pathways that join them together. Alleyways are public spaces in a sense that everyone can access to them, yet the narrow quality of it adds a sense of privacy to it. People store things there, rest there and work there, using the alleyway as if it is their narrow and vertical backyard.

    Unintentionally or not, you have chosen an interesting arrangement of colour codes. Purple and earth tones dominating this session, I wonder if you could have focused on one specific colour. Careful with the typo’s in your titles though.
