Haha, one of the few places to have no lights, or at least decorations. The Halloween stuff comes down late on the 31st, and on November 1st the Christmas stuff goes up. Mercifully the festive songs don’t start then, but they aren’t long after. So more than enough reasons for dark looks!
If I wanted a characterful portrait photograph done of myself, that alley, with that lighting, and, of course, this photographer, would be my choice.
Another marvelous face captured with such an interesting expression.

It may only be me, but there is something of Bill Murray in that face. https://tinyurl.com/y99ram5f

Thank you! It really is a great little street, especially so at this time of year when on a good day the light is pretty much perfect.
Ah, see what you mean. Definitely some similarities there.
