I love the subway in New York! Unfortunately one is not allowed to take pictures in any of the subway stations. I got in trouble last time I took some pictures (1994)! I just spent a few days in New York over Christmas and was very tempted to take some shots in the subway but cameras were everywhere and I didn't want to loose my camera to one of the security guys.....You must have been lucky. I like your shot a lot!

you just have to hid the fact that you are taking a photo, in this shot i had the camera at my waist pressed against one of the beams

I love that it's in B&W, generally train-moving pictures tend to be colour ones. B&W gives it such a moody, grungey feel that makes the whole underground look a bit seedy but beautiful for it. Then the train comes through like a lightfilled saviour. Very nice.

I love the feeling within this shot - it's as if a sudden wave of light is about to overwhelm the entire subway station, and keep going on and on. Nice contrast here as well

one subway shot on your entire stay in nyc? .. for shame! .. for shame!





actually, i've been living there my whole life and i have barely gotten any.



maybe i'll do so sometime soon.



pretty interesting subway shot nevertheless. hope that people didn't look at your suspiciously. (or that you didn't totally confuse the train-instructor!)

Nice and dingy.

I love how it doesn't not feel like any other subway shot I've seen in film, TV or in photography. Usually, most of the ones that I see are much cleaner and less motion.

Great job.

freezejeans [2003-12-11 17:28:02 +0000 UTC]

Love it! Looks like you were standing in the exact same spot I was I like yours better because you captured the subway motion. Awesome

I like the surrealness of this, very nice. The tones and contrasts are great, love the flare, nice how the people look ethereal, standing on the platform, well done, a beauty of a capture.

turned out wonderfully, tho! I love the way it feels like a glimpse of the 1920's. the burst of light, the glow of the pedistrians awaying their train. excellent work!

Wow, this is so different from many subway shots floating around. It's dingy and comfortable. Interesting way to shoot this. Love it!

Did these people know you were shooting them? I am always hesitant to shoot people I don't know. I hate asking. I feel dumb...
