I won't delve too much into the points others made (slight green tint and slight blur) which held the photo back as far as score. What really amazes on this photo, not sure if you did a crop or not, but the lines end almost perfectly at the end of the frames. Amazing the way it was composed (or cropped). Generally, at least what I find appealing, in highly organized shapes and architecture it helps to have the end point not so busy. I think if the hall wasn't cluttered it would help. I would be tempted to burn it out and see how it fars. Still as I mentioned perfect composition.

Great lines and vanishing point. However, I have to agree with Jeffrey on this one; pretty hard to get a good shot in these conditions without a tripod. I don't know what the Nikon Coolpix capabilities are, but if the ISO can be turned up to 1600 or even 3200, grain might be better than the slight blur that's inevitable otherwise sans tripod. I don't know if the green cast was intentional - if so, please ignore - but if not, maybe consider changing white balance to fluorescent setting or bracket a few shots on different WB settings to see what works best. Finally, I think fill flash might have enhanced the foreground area, depending on how far your flash extends.

Love the lines. Looks a little on the green side though.

Mary, I like the pattern in this shot. The whole scene reminds me of your "Morning Commute" shot. I would just like to see a little sharper focus. Of course, maybe it's just my bad eyes.

Don't those ceilings just scream to be shot at interesting angles? I get to admire them every day going to and from work. :)

i don't know why this didn't crack 5. Maybe the color and slight blur? I know from experience how hard it is to get it sharp, since you need a permit to get a tripod.

Great ceiling, good opportunity. A tripod would really have improved this shot.

Great perspective. Wish we could see just a tiny bit more of the station/people in the lower right.
