Waiting in the dark Photo

Photographer’s Note

Warszawa Ochota PKP station is a railway station on the suburban part of the Warsaw Cross-City Line, Poland. Located on the corner of Aleje Jerozolimskie and Towarowa Street in a cutting, it has one island platform. The station building, at the street level, was constructed in early 1960s, as of 2007 is in a poor state and is scheduled for refurbishment in 2009. The station is sandwiched between two other pairs of rails: the long-distance track of the cross-city line (to the north) and, to the south, the WKD light railway with a station (sharing the same building)

Hi Marcin!

I like the way the rails guide our eye through your composition and carry out us to this staircase well of light.
Nice contrast between the concrete V sharing their verticalities vis-a-vis the horizontality of the rails.

The tags give matter and color to your photograph and the woman's presence contrasts well with the glaucous environment of your composition.

I say yeaaah!

Hello Marcin.
Really it shows a damaged aspect,I hope you'll take a shot when it would be refurbished and put here in TE to compare,or better I hope I could go to Poland someday and then I can see it myself :)
I think your shot show very well the damaged and deserted station,the dark tunnel at the end of the rails,the lonely girl,the exit..,and all in great detail and perfect light balanced.I think this is a great work.TFS.
Regards,
Sonsoles.
