I always wondered how that was done =) It works a treat, so much so that it disorients me a bit on full view!

Reminds me how it still scared me. (In January 1971, I was not game to go in there, for fear I’d be lost.) In 2005, my daughter, who was living there was with me. I was still so confused. Not game to travel by myself.
Although this station is not so crowded, it still reminds me of my un-ease.
Great capture.

Very artistic Douzy – love the blurred effect particularly on the background people – really creates a strong sense of movement and urban alienation I think – even for Paris!

dynamic moving image with a threatening feel, the green line just carries you straight to the main person – excellent work

Geoff’s art on Flickr brings me here…....you have a very creative approach to photography. This piece in particular provides an example, movement and stopped action at the same time. You could call it “click” at the right time…..nice work!

love the energy and mood you’ve conveyed in this metro capture…simply awesome!! It’s got that energised feel, yet keeps the grittiness and sometimes bleak feel of underground travel – very cool!

Time standing still and in motion~ all will change in just the next moment! Love the feel of this, the lone person, the lights going on forever, the whole mood~ wonderful idea and well executed!

I like the realness of this. Feels like I’m right there…
I want to thank you for getting one of my Tees: “Inmate”. I
just saw that today! (I had gone away for awhile.) Though I no longer
have a clothing section, I greatly appreciate your buying it-& I hope you
like it! Thanks again, :)
