Artist's Comments

I took this photo in the summer at (obviously) Kings Cross Station in London.

Personally, I quite like it, but I think I can do quite a bit better...

I really like it, because of this long exposure you used. The blur in the walking people caused by this exposure, shows the hurry they are in very well. :)
Beside that I really like the black and white. I can't really explain why but I think it's got a much more beautiful atmosphere this way than if you had used colours.
Good job, and nice to see some work from you again, it's been a while!

Thanks :-) It was a sudden moment of inspiration I had...people have probably done this before, but I came up with the idea seperately. I reckon I could have done better by panning left slightly, but I do like how it turned out, especially in black and white!

I know, I've been really busy lately, but I should start to make time...so here I am again!

As ~Atis-Phantasa said, the long exposure gives a great feel of motion. Also, the way the light is flitering in through the windows in the ceiling almost gives it a slight surreal feeling, as they lead into the distance in the corner.

The basic material of photographs is not intrinsically beautiful.
It's not like ivory or tapestry or bronze or oil on canvas.
You're not supposed to look at the thing, you’re supposed to look through it.
It's a window.

I think it's a great shot because of the blurs, and because you've represented normal days here quite well :D

Great job :thumbsup:
