You know the drill! Leave your quesses in the comments. Answer à demain.

Update:

This is the labyrinth at Grace (Episcopal/Anglican) Cathedral, San Francisco.

It is patterned after the labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral. Grace also has the same pattern in an outdoor labyrinth.

It looks like a sacred labyrinth in what looks like a beautiful church?

Ann a dit…

A maze, a mandala or a small intestine. Although looking at the surroundings what Lily said is probably right.

Birdman a dit…

Life is just one big maze. Don't get misled.

Marka a dit…

oh, shoot. What's it called. It's not Stations of the Cross, nor the Via Dolorosa. It's a prayer labyrinth!

Genie a dit…

It is a tiled maze like Henry the VIII had in his garden. I do not have a clue, but my guess it is in a large church or cathedral and the people are looking up at a ceiling mural or stained glass. Come on....tell us what it is!

The indoor Labyrinth at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco.

I like the stained glass reflections!

LD a dit…

Everybody's way smarter than me today. I give up.

Hilda a dit…

It looks like a meditation labyrinth, but I've never seen one inside a church. What beautiful church has this? I love the light of the stained glass windows on the floor.

Olivier a dit…

un immense labyrinthe qui représente le cerveau

Sylvia K a dit…

I love it -- wherever and whatever, it just appeals to me and I find it intriguing!

Regina a dit…

Inside a church or a museum?
Beautiful shot.

Regards.

Ann a dit…

there must be something about people called Ann. I wanted to say small intestine, and i see the other Ann says small intestine as well.

You see, i am a teacher, andI just taught the digestive system to my kids.

Seriously, I am sure kids have a great time using it as a maze.

And what is it?

Francisca a dit…

A beautiful meditation/prayer labyrinth indeed!

[I very much had the King of the Road song in mind when I titled ,y post... and it was great hearing Roger Miller sing it again! Thanks, Louis!]

B SQUARED a dit…

A precursor of a corn maze.

JM a dit…

Great view from above. Love this kind of shots.

EG Wow a dit…

I'm a-mazed at this photo. I guess you were on a balcony when you took this photo.

Cezar and Léia a dit…

I imagine it's a Modern Art Museum and it's a kind of interactive exposition! :)
Right?

Gerald (Hyde DP) a dit…

It seems to be maze in what I imagine is a cathedral. I tried to trace the route from the centre with my mouse but lost it and of course the two photographers in the foreground mask what I suspect is the entrance.

Halcyon a dit…

It's definitely inside a church. Don't know which one though.

Sallie (FullTime-Life) a dit…

A-mazing photo Louis!

thanks for sharing.

PS: I'm e-mailing your slice of pizza ;>)

Genie a dit…

Thanks for telling us where it is and what it is....since I am an Anglican Episcopalian educated by Dominican nuns (that’s a mouthful), I am proud to have thought it was taken in a church.

Halcyon a dit…

I have been to Chartres cathedral. Is the labyrinth outside there? I don't recall seeing something like this there.

James a dit…

I've been to both Cathedrals but I remember Chartres better.

So what do I win for getting the correct answer? :)

Dina a dit…

I'd love to be there someday. I read the book about it. In Arkansas we walked a painted canvas copy of it.
A wonderful photo.
