Yes, it's the Metro again. What can I say? I spend 40 minutes traveling on it each way every weekday, plus time entering, exiting, and waiting for the train.

This is a different take from the usual shots standing on the platform.

I'm trying out a small white border. What do you think?

I always thought the design of the Metro was neat looking. We always got on the Metro at the Springfield station to go into DC to the museums.

Hi Jeffrey, stopping by to thumb thru some of the 30-day challenge photos. This is great, one of your strongest IMO. The colors and lighting add a spooky, almost otherwordly glow. And the white border brings it all together nicely. Great job!

i really like this, i would also like to see it with the lights and people cloned out down the middle, then it could really be open to interpretation

I do like the Washington metro system - it's quite beautiful in it's own way, isn't it? Nice shot!

A fantastic photo!! The border is ok, I can take or leave borders, this one isn't offensive to me. :)

I really like this shot. The colors and pattern are great. The border seems fine, it is not distracting.

Wow that is a fantastic shot, the light and shadows pick out the details of the squares in the ceiling perfectly. It is going in my favourites.

Butt Kickin' image!
I would try to clone out the "Big Brother is Watching" cam, and go with the black pin stripe border suggestion. You may be able to get an even higher perspective using a monopod and holding the camera higher and using the self timer. It may be dangerous though because big brother may wonder what you are doing and come after you. I used a monopod to great advantage while on a senic steam RR in New Mex last Oct. for overhead shots while the train was underway.

Awesome perspective shot! My first thought was that you got yourself on top of the train to get this view.

I've been there, many years ago. Got the same shot, but it is on film. Really nice perspective.

Your anghle choice was perfect. The lighting capture all the nooks and crannies very well. You might try just alittle wider border just for comparison. The border adds to the overall look.

I love it! This is SUCH a cool photo! I love how you can see the texture in the little compartments, and the different colors of lighting. This is really awesome!

I like the white border, but I think if it were mine, I'd put a small black border to make it pop a little more. . .but that just may be me.

But this picture. . .it's going to look awesome no matter what.
