7 July 2009: North Greenwich Tube Station
For a short while, it appeared as if there there was nobody on this platform of North Greenwich tube station (Jubilee Line), except for this woman and me. Her blue jeans and red jacket mirrored the blue and red colour scheme of the station. Her slumped posture and her back to the camera, seemed to me to be the perfect setting for Edward Hopper, one of my favourite painters.
How could I not capture this shot?
Were there any people in the platform, but outside the frame?
There was just one more person outside the frame, and she was behind me. The station was otherwise deserted.
The repition of colours – blue, red and silvery grey – over and over in the theme just gives me goosebumps.
beautifully composed and shot
Thank you.
