in fairness, it was 7:30 at night... but still... you'd think someone might want the elevator (the telephones are NEVER used as far as i can tell)...
I'm surprised they are still there. Nice capture

lovely capture ...

Did you call a 'bomb scare"! I would have thought it would have people here! Makes a clean and pleasant shot!

Eerie! Great shot

Great shot, composition, light...looks like a spooky setting for a scene

Awesome b&w

great composition

Fabulous composition, it all looks spookily quiet. I was passing a telephone kiosk in Nelson Bay a few weeks ago and heard a young girl saying to her Mum "What's that", pointing to the telephone kiosk.

There is something quite cool about the emptiness in this shot. As for payphones I am always amazed to see them, I cannot even think where to find one in downtown Chicago, though I am sure they still exist.

No, telephones like this are dinosaurs from the past! Wonderful deserted shot and patterns.

I think I've forgotten how to even use a pay phone! This is great and eerily deserted.

Really like the composition. The phones look like the place where the guy on the run desperately tries to call for help while the bad guys are watching him in old movies.

WOw, hard to even find these.
May 29th, 2015  
I like the deserted look.

There is something odd about seeing a place that should be full of people empty like this and you captured the mood well.

A rather desolate scene. I like the balance of dark on one side and light on the other.

Like a scene from an old movie. I watched North By Northwest on the plane coming back and was struck by how plot points turn when people are in phone booths. Strong capture of a bygone era.

@taffy funny! That's one thing I always think of... How none of those movies could be made today because everyone has a cellphone :)

Helloooo!!-is anybody out there?- another N masterpiece :)

Amazing capture! Love the lighting and emptiness.

Another great underground capture (at least I think you are underground). As for the telephones, one wonders why they don't just rip them out and leave one or two of them.

Real feeling of emptiness

Perfectly exposed and nicely processed. Maybe public telephones are about to become extinct? Unfortunately (for health) elevators won't go that way until the electricity finally goes down! But with all that hydro you do have an advantage in Canada. Shame you can't keep the oil tar sands in the ground! Sorry, I digress!
