    Simply put, I like it.

    BTW we call that an escalator in the states.

    Hi Almo and Jared,
    Thanks for the kind words. I am not sure about the positions of the passers-by.
    All the best.

    Re: Under an Elevator

    Hey Yoyo,

    What are you standing on to get the angle? What I really like about this concept is the interaction of the lines (store fronts, stairs, escalator, ...). Very intriguing....

    However, I find the right third a tad busy and tried a crop (attached). Too bad that "carpet" sign is there. Maybe you can move forward a little so the sign is not so prominent.

    BR,
    Tim

    Re: Under an Elevator

    I think I like the sign on the left cropped out on this one as it is a nearby in focus attention grabber. The passersby might be better if the were spread from front to back more rather than being on the same plane. It's a very interesting shot with a lot to look at and an interesting variation of light.
    Nice work.
