The yellowish color is great. I am puzzled by the place where the photographer was standing in between these tracks and how she was able to reach this place and shoot this one?

good photo, i like the yellow color against the dark of night background, I remember taking the train near the Angby Plan(?) campground to get to Stockholm, no one was on the booth so we just went in, we got a free ride!

Hi Susanna,

There's a nice symmetry to this picture especially with the crossover of the tracks and it's fun to have included the forbidding signs too :)

Like previous comments I had quite liberating experiences on Stockholm's public transport recently - the metro attendant who was on the phone to his girl and just waved us through on the way back to Bredäng one evening and several buses with no suuply of tickets to buy during the days.

Hello Susanna,
I know Alvik... it's a nice place. I wouldn't mind living there.
Interesting yellow gamma! But I, too, wonder where you were standing when taking this photo?
Anyway, taking into account the evening/night timetable of Stockholm metro trains, you had enough time to step from the platform onto the rails, take a few shots... then come back :)
best wishes,
Elena
