Here is one of the subway stations in Hong Kong. What about subway in your country?

We do not have a subway system where I live. However, we do have light rail commuter trains. This is the arrival of the 9:23 TRE.

I've actually been working on a D.C. Metro series for the past year or so. My whole Metro set can be seen on Flickr. Here's a couple:

I took this with my father's camera coming home from the 1965 World's Fair. I was about an 11 year old child. He said" You're going to waste film, it won't come out, you can't take a picture in the subway without a flash.". I said "Yes, I can.", and he was angry with me for the whole ride. My father exposed maybe one roll of film every two years, and was very worried about "wasting" a frame. A birthday maybe got two shots, and the World's Fair got maybe five pictures. It took him another 6 months to finish this roll and I was able to see if my picture "came out".

The camera was a Zeiss Contaflex with a 2.8 Tessar. When he saw the picture, instead of complimenting me that my picture "came out", he said: "Why did you waste film taking a picture of people we don't know?".

I posted this once before, I think. This is the 1980's, pre-Guiliani NYC subway:

Maddoc,
VERY nice images... thanks! Was the first one taken with digital or film? If film, what did you use? I really like the color saturation and clarity in that image. Thanks.

One of the best escalator images I've seen. The third group of people on the left really makes this image stand out as 'different'. Thanks for posting it.
