The Best Seat on the Train!

Well it is not exactly a seat, but at the back of Chicago's L trains, you can stand and see everything behind you. I took this on my way into the city to do some shopping for my Mum and my daughter's birthdays, and then edited the you know what out of it in Snapseed on the train on my way home.

Fantastic shot and wonderful processing. This is a line I never take, and your photos of it make me think it would be fun to ride just for the photos. Blue line doesn't get any view like this at all!

That IS the best seat in the train! Great processing, I love playing with snapseed, even if it is easy to get carried away sometimes :)

[DbJ]

Hmmm, very cool. Can't believe I've never thought to try the back. Have tried (mostly unsuccessfully) to get shots through the front window...never even thought to go to the back LOL! And, very nice image!

[Helen K]

Great effect and I love how the name 'Trump' is center image!

[Ukandie!]

@helly31 Thanks Helen. The "Trump' sign is controversial here in Chicago, for its obnoxious size and look. Since it was added to the building the city has changed the ordinance , but because it went up before the ordinance there is nothing that can be done about it.

[Zita]

Great composition and point of view. Fantastic results.

[john morley]

Snapseed is my go to when I find myself at a loose end with a few pics on my phone . I often put the cameras card into the phone and see what happens . You really got a result with this one.....

[Junko Y]

FAV for the contrast of older architecture with new (despite that it's the TRUMP) and the iconic El running through it all!

[Jerri]

i like. might be a lot of editing, but the result was very exciting lines. fav
