Ray - The details and lighting are special in this image. The oval sky light and surround casting light on the lines of the escalators is real nice. The pesky lighted panels on ticket machines in the lower left pull the eye away slightly. Very nicely composed. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

Ray, I am a fan of Twilight Zone, so please forgive me this association. When I first saw "Going Up, Coming Down," the memory of the episode "To Serve Man" popped into my mind.

You have an excellent black and white. The lighting in the center to center top is just perfect to draw eyes to into the picture.

How cool is that! Ray, you got a great eye. Thanks for sharing.

Edited in because it kept bugging me: Why the blue border and did you try others?

Hi Christie,
I usually pick a colour that's already in the shot to use as a keyline in the border, and no I probably didn't try another colour.

Wow...look at all the commenters, Ray. You've developed an instant and well deserved following. I just read the comments. I agree with Thad about the change machine in the lower left and with the other comments about the superb lighting and perspective. I'm not sure I understand John's comment about the black and white unless I'm still hallucinating from yesterday's overdose of bath salts.

This is a departure from what I think of as your "usual stuff", but it's a grand image nonetheless.

I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.

Very nice. I love architecture. The lines and curves are so attractive as is the metal look.
