I find this picture so amazing. It's the subway from a different perspective. Often when I'm taking the Queens bound E or F train I stand at the front and peer forward. Just out of curiosity. The light in this picture definitely transforms the subject. Even though I was trying to take a picture of the traintracks or rather where they lead too, it would be impossible to even tell where I was if it wasn't for the platform lights. Somehow the image feels intense and nostalgic at the same time, also that the viewer is destruction-bound.

Taken during the last big snowstorm. This image has a lonely gloomy feel to it. It's kind of sad but the way the trees stretch up says everything will be fine when all this is over. I also like this picture because if it wasn't for the hardly visible houses in the back, it looks like something taken from a history book. Like what life was like before electricity in the 1500's.
