I just got off the train and was looking at a poster on the wall as my train left. As I finished reading the poster another train arrived and I turned around to find this in front of me. I thought it was worth a shot. An image I've had in my mind for a while now and have been debating whether to shoot it with a wide angle or fish eye, but in the end shot it with a wide angle because I wanted to keep the lines straight. This was shot just after the photo for  'Last Night'. As I got to the top of the stairs I turned around and saw promise in the tube hall with the train lines leading down the center. Taken at Canary Wharf on a late Friday night as the train pulls in. It was 3'C, Brrrrrr... I'd say it's more like a crowd then a line. Massive train delays aren't a very common occerance at Waterloo, but one I've been hanging out to photograph the chaos when it does. I spent about 15min trying to get some snaps while at the same time being pushed and shoved around by people wanting to get bye. I wish I had a better viewpoint and more time to do it (running late for a party)... Ah well, there's always next time. This is what happens when you hold back the morning travellers for 20min and then release them into the tube. Chaos. There's no courtesy when it comes to allowing people off the train. It's not the first time I've done a photo like this, but I really do like the texture and light play. Taken at Kings Cross Station underneath the international train line. Another photo that I've done similarly before, but not one done for the Daily Grind ;) Amongst the hustle and bustle of a busy tube station there are 'some' people that aren't rushing about. I had this shot in my head for a while, it just took some guts to get on my hands and knees to photographs peoples feet. I'm sure to the surrounding people it looked like I was being a perv :S A sneak shot while travelling the Jubilee line. The lady next to him whispered in his ear that I took a photo, but he didn't care. Just going for a stroll during lunch and thought this would make a good picture. Again, I just waited till someone walked where I wanted them to. A new development going on next to my work. I came back each day and photographed people working, but I like this on the best. I stumbled across this when leaving the station, but it took a number of tries before I got this right, as it's not easy lining everything up at 16mm where it 'just' fits in. At 6:15am on the tube, hardly anyone is awake. Only geeks will understand why I took this photo ;) Paul MacKinnon on 500px
