Excellent image JJ!!!! its a perfect composition....takes you straight down the station! The B&W is stunning. I love the way the '9's gradually vanish from sight. i think you've got a really cracker of a shot here JJ, definately one of my faves...BRAVO!!!!

oooh i love the way it confuses the eye with the motion blur between the concrete posts... it took me a moment to see what kind of picture it is... the grain helps confuse the issue too lol i think it's very clever, and i love the image!!

@MJ: I took this early morning, and waited for everyone to leave the train and get out of sight to capture this shot, any other time of day wouldnt have been able to capture it empty as it gets so busy

nice shot - I like the light and treatment, and the sense that the alternating 9s are playing hide and go seek.

Very strong lines. I like the repetition of the #9 and the blur of the train.

The presence of loneliness... It seems that we want to escape, but we have no where to.

We like your composition here - and the good timing!
The emptiness is great, it leaves the focus on the columns, the numbers, the building - and the light is wonderful!

Great lines here. You bring out the best of this architectural style with your clean looking black and white work.
