XV. Steps Through History XV

In "Steps Through History XV," the tunnel becomes a passage through time itself, with the long shutter speed technique capturing a figure in motion, blurred against the stillness of the tunnel’s structure. The puddles serve as mirrors, reflecting light and shadow, creating an interplay of sepia tones and silver glimmers. The figure, present and absent in the blur, represents the transient nature of history and memory. As Henry David Thoreau wrote, "It is not worth the while to go round the world to count the cats in Zanzibar." In these images, the beauty lies not in the details but in the fluidity of time.
