This seems like a different angle from your usual shots, and it's quite interesting. As usual, the soft tones and deep blacks are wonderful.

Interesting angle, and I like the shadows too. Would enjoy seeing more pictures of Union Station.

Love the Holga:-) Such an amazing affect through the Holga:-)

What a vantage point you had. Looks like you're quite high.

@sherri: thanks sherri. the angle is a bit deceptive. they've built up multistory parking in the back of the station, so this angle is from there.

I like how the shadow spills into the picture almost as if someone spilled some ink.

nice pic, something mysterious (mislead by the huge ominous) shade until the eyes see the poster and the mind understand we are yet in a human world

@kerfendal: this building houses a science museum for kids now, but it was once the site of old time mob shoot-outs. so, i guess it could be both mysterious and human.
