Photographer’s Note
No, not the truce line from yesterday's war, but the rather unusual line in the Boston subway system, which becomes an underground railway in the city centre, but a tramway in the suburbs. This shot at the main central intersection station.
Hand held shot, I still mioss that f1.8 lens.

Wow, whats it like to shoot witha camera like the Rolleiflex? Im fascinated by old school equipment.
What an unusual subway line. Its unlike anything Ive ever seen in terms of subways. I like the hard core graininess here, hajjeg lines, really has an old feel.

This one is lovely, Richard, oodles of charm, not least being that your grainy BW makes the scene look MUCH older than 1980, you know...more like the 50's.
Delightful pic,
Francis
