Taking the Tube Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hello everyone. After a very hectic few weeks, I've finally got a bit of time to spend with TE, here with my free internet access in a hotel room in northern Lithuania. On my way the airport on Monday, I got this scene, rather like the way the elements came together here.

Hi Richard,
I like this one. I guess there are not so many tube stations above ground in London. (Or is it just that I've only visited inner city?)
The white poles split the scene quite efficiently to stairs and rail side. Nice natural framing.

Hi Richard,
Nice, unexpected view of the Tube above ground.
I always remember the plain advice at the London tube stations: "Mind the gap!" I recalled it this week when I listened to the advice in a Portuguese train station; instead of the simple three words, in Portuguese the advice goes something like this: "When entering the door of the train, please take care of the distance between the platform and the door of the train"!
I wished to reply to the PA: Mind the simplicity! :-)
Regards,
F
