Yeah, I had this alot in the comments..... this picture was taken in London, in the Westminster Underground (metro or subway) station.

There is a lot to look at, I wanted to have the chains as the obvious-in-focus subject, but have the background pull your eyes away and grab some of your interest, but at the same time always returning to the chains...... a bit of an experiment, from the comments, I can see one that didn't work!

Interesting perspective with the chains. Makes this a bit menacing for some reason.

Comment by muur88:
interesting focus. the focus on the chain doesn't bother me as much as the piece cutting across the bottom

The diagonals are yummy, and the hanging chain in the foreground is nice. It just doesn't come together for me, sorry.

maybe a longer exposure blurring the riders up & down rather than focusing on the chain would have worked better

I feel this would have been better if the escelator were sharp, rather than the chain.
