Going Under Ground 2

Shot on a recent trip to London in the TUBE. Shot with a Sony Cybershot P200

The photo was captured in a fleeting moment I had while we were on a whirl wind trip. I could have spent hours in the tube where there are so many photographic opportunities at every turn. Maybe one day I will visit just to take photos when I should be able to get even better results with a little more time.

    Its one of these photographs that will appear time and again in future years either in books or railway museums etc perhaps showing the history of how human traffic travelled I wonder if this could be taken again in 50 years time . This is shot more important than you may realize .!

    looks like in Moscow underground – but it is uk – how old is this picture? I like the picture

  • Ian James replied

    Meiko it was taken on the 12th June 2008. I think this bit of the Tube is been worked on hence the ceiling is all stripped.
