Mid-Month Subway Theme

It is mid-month subway theme day again. This photo was taken at the Queensborough Plaza subway station a couple weeks ago. Notice the guy on the far right looking at his phone as the train snakes by? I wish I had a complete picture of him but this photo cannot be re-shot.

    Wonderful photo! I love how the purple of the "7" train is blurred as it whizzes by.

    I agree with teahouse about the whizzing action. As always, the night time is the right time.

    Happy subway day !

    I like that he is not totally in the picture. Just the important bits to tell the story. Cell phone, coffee and face. The light is a weeny bit distracting. Such a great NY picture.

    That is a VERY large cup of coffee to have in the evening!

    This is such a fullsome shot, Ming. The train, the bloke, the moon and the structure of that sign backwards. To me it shouts "CITY".

    I know I have been dormant, but every time you post a subway shot I always feel the desire to jump back into the game.

    The silvercup skyline is absolutely beautiful.

    Does a Subway franchise count to join this group? Ha, ha... Life in a small town...

    Exciting remembering living in a big city, Ming.

    You just caught the motion! It's a pity we have no subway in Verona...

    Very nicely done, Ming. This image as a wonderful feel to it and the hint of time the partial figure gives just enhances that idea. I'm not sure I'd really want more of the guy ...

    Super nice! I like the contrast between the glare of the lights and the sharp buildings in the background.

    Happy belated Subway Day Ming!
    Finally my post is up as well...

    I don't mind to see only half of this guy on the photo, I think it is a complete picture, full of motion, despite of the night time. Great!
