Excelent creative work. I like this vivid colors and the grainy overall look. I usually don't like very much frames, but it is perfect in this shot because it helps to focus on the composition.

Very interesting, Luko. The thumbnail just leaps off the page due to the strong color, so I had to peak inside and see what's going on. I thought you shot this with some super saturated color film, but than I noticed you shot this with digital. Anyway, the result is quite amazing. I like the grain and the figure in the distance almost being sucked up by the red color. I also have something about the subway system, so I'll have to drag my camera along and see what I can come up with. Excellent Luko, and very, very different. Well done.

The first impression is given by shapes of the blue, yellow and red elements in the composition. It gives a balanced and attractive image but I'm still not convinced about the (too?) grainy look...
And I still don't know which frames are suitable for photography showed on a screen, wouldn't a thinner one be better?

Defenatly a gritty Torben feel in this picture Luko. Defenatly a sucess. It was a good idea to play with lines and colours Luko. I have always thought that this type of compositions are inresting. At first, itis just a picture of...not much really...but when you look closer you start to see the patterns, you notice the colours and the lines and all of a sudden you see the composition. I like it becuase it is not obvious.

He he, if you keep posting this serie , which i hope, then i might actually found my way around in the Parisian subway system (you only have to point out all the high lights for all stations ;)) WOW, just got this feeling of missing Paris tremendasly...:)

Excellent colors. Composition is very good. PP work is also very well done. Just as an alternative, why not do it in BW and layer it with the colored and brush very subtly till the faint colors appear?

Very good, anyway.

Nice metro scene, the bold colours liven this image up and contrast nicely with the lone man; metros will always have moments like this, with or without the attempted mood change via paint.
More to the left maybe?
The grain is good, the grain is bad.
Yes it needs grain, but I'm not a fan of this digital stuff, when i look at this shot, the different colours introduced by the grain (blue and red especially) spoil the shot for me. Grain should be a different shade of the underlying colour i think. Good attempt, very good, i know they're hard!
