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...
