Photographer’s Note

Retiro Train Station
taken a sunday at 11:05 am
A second compo of this station that represents such a flat calm. Sometimes is so weird to hear the silence, wothout the significant sound of locomotives, but if you are familiarized with this...you`ll still hear the train coming...

Las estaciones de tren son sitios bonitos para hacer fotos con sus enormes construcciones rítmicas y grandes espacios que ayudan para una perspectiva. Esta perspectiva está aquí mejorada por el punto de vista tan bajo, casi pegado al suelo. En suma, una muy buena foto. Si además se añade el hecho de encontrar una estación casi vacía, lo que es muy extraño, todavía mejor. Enhorabuena!

Hi Fernando
what a surprise! I did not know you made this photograph.
I like much the calm atmosphere and the little pink tonality. IMHO the guy on the right could have been more on the left side.
congrats
Pascal

It is quite strange to find a train station empty, it creates a somewhat spooky atmosphere! Definately a good choice using B&W for this photo - makes it more dramatic.

A fine B&W with a nice perspective. The only man makes it look even more abandoned. Could be a slight tilt to the left in it.
