The motion in your shots is always just right. I love this capture. Never been in a subway and they intrigue me.

The world moves so quickly around us that we sometimes feel we've been left standing!!!!

@Elaine-: Thanks Elaine. Half the battle is the people, whether there are too many or at times not enough. I take the thing daily, so I am lucky with opportunity.

Another stunner (umm, the photo...and possibly the model). The station looks quite deserted, so I presume the rush hour was over?

@dobbino: Thank you. Most of the people were at the other end and there has been a train 30 seconds prior to this one. It was a rare quiet moment, but just for a moment as hoards of people also got off the train.

An excellent one. Movement effect is lovely successful.

A lot of debate in the UK about whether we are permitted to take pics in the subway . . current consensus seem to be yes(ish) but not using flash . . as if we would. This is a beauty and can support all kinda thoughts like those canvassed above !

another FAVORITE! i love this -- time space and motion all at once -- a very modern, yet also a very futuristic shot! marvelous tones (as always), magical composition (as always) -- beautiful pov and directional lines! very powerful indeed! splendid imagery, bravo!!
