Artist's Comments

This picture was taken yesterday at the nørreport s-trian station in the heart Copenhagen. Tog is danish for train, and nobody really knows what the 's' stands for. It's kind of a government secret. All s-trains are red and the s-train net spans all of greater compenhagen, so it's not really a metro cuz it's a bit bigger and this one is the only real underground station. If you want to go to my place from here, just take the s-trian called 'A'.

(very minor contrast and while balance adjustments in PSP.)

I really enjoy this photo.

I'm kind of new to the long exposure idea. How was this done? Why is the train blurry and the person standing there in focus?

I like the clean lights and the rich colors! :)

Thanks cdsfire :) This is my first deviation, and you're my first comment so that means a lot to me.

Anyway, I took this shot while waiting for my 'A' train back home, and it was delayed so I took a picture on the opposite side where an 'E' train just took off:) The exposure was set to 8 seconds and I was VERY lucky that the person didn't move at all drung those 8 seconds. The train of course was moving hence the effect. I set the apparture to 8.0 (which is the highest on my camera), so that's why I think the lights turned out so clean.

wow, i love this picture! its so perfectly taken..the only gripe i have is your name tossed in there randomly..just doesnt fit and takes the focus away

Thank you:)
Ok I'll update it when I get the time. I don't know extremely much about composition. I put it in there to balance out the person somehow, but I guess it doesn't work that way. Tell me if it looks better without the name, cuz I'm not sure.

aww... forgot to leave a comment :/
just want to say that the colors and the blur of the train? gives the picture such a warm impression - very well done! :D

Thanks so much for the information on how to perform one of these shots. I don't have any trains near me, but I will probably do some experiments with some other things.

Yeah, that looks a lot better!

DId you intentionally wanted to take the man standing there within the picture? If not, it would've look more interesting if he wasn't in the scene. It suggests a very desolate place in a late hours.
The whole speeding train is also an interesting shot. I adore fast paced motion captured on film. Great job!
