The first idea
an alley way with people walking on the sidewalk and buildings in the background at sunset
The best one, I think
an alley way with people walking down it and buildings on both sides, in the background
Now two figures, but the angle is more direct, less oblique...
an alley way with people walking down it and buildings on either side in the background
Three figures, distinct but indeterminate, suitably mysterious, appear, opportunately and framed in the archway at the end of the lane...
an alley way with cobblestones and buildings in the background
Ok, getting there...
