Chrysalis got it perfectly right. That's what I wanted to show. I thought I could increase the impact of the motion blur and the speed it represents by placing it in contrast to the wall. I think it worked.
I don't remember exactly what white balance setting I used but I remember that I set it so that the lighting is a bit warmer. The lamps produce a slightly reddish light but I liked that in this case because the yellow of the subway came out quite nicely.

This is a wonderful shot. For the lighting that you had to work with, I think your colors turned out Nicely. Is there any way for you to do custom white balance here. If not then disregard. It just has an unatrual Hue to the overall lighting. Other than that great shot. |

Fabulous colours, reflections and movement. The light is just wonderful. I like the composition too with the vertical at the left to balance the converging horizontal lines of train and platform.
Personally I'd crop a little off the top.

This was my second choice of location for this challenge but I don't think I'd have managed a great shot like this! Well done! |

I really like the composition and the colours here. The "fixed" vertical lines of the inquiry kiosk are working great together with the well selected motion blur level of the train. But there's room for improvement too. IMHO a greater DOF wold make this shot better and clearer. I'd like to see the lamps and the paving tiles in a sharper focus. Did you used a tripod? The silhouette of a person, lazily leaned against the kiosk or waitig for the train on the track, would add the WOW. Nevertheless good luck for the challenge! (8) |

Neat capture, I love the colors. Little too bright but it's good motion. |

Maybe the left side cropped a bit, and I would give it a 10 |
