7-Scape No.21 - The Next Stop is Times Square-42nd Street
A 7 train of the New York City Subway system departs 5th Av/Bryant Park Station for the short hop
to Times Square/42nd St, the next to last stop on its westbound journey to 34th St-Hudson Yards.(*)
This station allows connection between the crosstown IRT Flushing Line 7 service and the uptown and
downtown B,D,F, and M trains of the IND 6th Avenue line, running perpendicularly one level above the 7.
7Scapes traces the route of the 7 train, both below and above the streets between Hudson Yards
and Flushing Main Street in northeastern Queens. It grew out of a long-standing interest in this
particular line that started in the photographer's late teen years. (**)

It's not easy to take this shot cause it's dark and you have to fight against low light, noise and motion. This photo is not 100 percent sharp...doesn't matter.Your photo presents a wonderful mood...the train...left and right the blue...and the bright points especially the tracks which bring my eyes to the train. A great shot.
Best Regards HG

In these more than dark surroundings the digital performance is tremendous!In former times it wasn´t very likely we dared shooting such scenes, knowing the results would be just for the bin...
