An old shot, and one taken from a moving car, but I'm still pretty fond of it. I find atmospheric shots like this difficult to post-process. In this case, I made adjustments to color balance, levels, and curves, but eventually I just needed to stop playing. (Lest I miss my self-imposed absolute last deadline for the photo of the day.)

Taken from the wikipedia:

Marcel Aymé (March 29, 1902 - October 14, 1967) was a French novelist, children's writer , humour writer and also a movie and theater playwright (...) One of Aymé's most famous short stories is Le Passe-Muraille or The Walker-Through-Walls, for which there is a sculpture in Paris (see image above) that features the story's main character, Dutilleul. At the age of 42, Dutilleul suddenly discovered he "had the remarkable gift of being able to pass through walls with perfect ease." What begins as a novelty that gives him pleasure, the ability pushes Dutilleul toward more sinister pursuits.
