TSC: looking down

Riding down the (seriously long) escalator at the Porter Square subway station.

(the escalator is apparently 143' (~43.5m) long; the lower tracks are 105' (~32m) below street level)

(best on black; another trip down the escalator in the notes)

Very good, both, but I think the one on the note is better.

Folks, once again I recommend you look at this only one eye open. That way it is maybe easier to sense the depth on a two dimensional image.

Thanks! There are things I like about both... I added another note from that first ride, from higher up; in those, you definitely get more of a sense of how high up you are, but I kind of like the angle on this one. Also, the other ones had way too many people... ;)

(and I tried the one-eye thing, but it looks the same...)

Nice looking down. I think the one in the note is much better because one has more length to look down

Wow - really a long ride down! I like also both in the notes - they show the length a bit better!

great the way you've kept the horizon line, makes the image flip between going up going down and travelling along a tunnel, quite M.C.Escher . .

I like the one where you get the longer ride and more people going the opposite way.
