that looks like an interesting place to hang out for awhile. the movement and bright colors almost make me think i'm there, it's just missing some noise.

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks Beth.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Nice moody...colorful shot Pete. Just enough action to draw me in.

 

[Brian Moore]

There is a lovely softness to so many of your pictures, Pete, and this one is no exception. And also, the colors have punch while still seeming delightfully muted. Is that a beggar in the center, standing next to the entrance?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Nice movement there, Pete. Draws you down the tunnel.

 

[Hamish Gill]

Indeed! The line of people works a treat!

 

[Paul Lange]

I do like this, the softness and the blur of the moving people really work well. The way the station entrance is framed by the others buildings is nice too.

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks all. This is actually a street escalator!

 

[Lesley Jones]

I really love this Pete! The colours are vibrant and yet muted. There is action and yet it has a dreamy feel

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I like the way the grouse is peaking round to see what's going on down below

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks Lesley. I reckon he's keeping an eye out for that @Brian Moore, Chris!

 

[Brian Moore]

Thanks Lesley. I reckon he's keeping an eye out for that @Brian Moore, Chris!

Perhaps,...but @Brian Moore is concerned about the behavior of the two chaps at the bar; both glasses are empty yet both chaps remain in place. He therefore perceives them to be neither Scots nor Irish! Wait,...on 2nd thought, clearly they are mannequins!

 

[Pete Askew]

They'll be from Yorkshire!

 

[Pete Askew]

An insignificant prize for who works that one out!
