Crossing

Thought I ought to give you a change from Steampunks and move onto everyday urban life in Nottingham.

This is Davids Lane crossing in Basford, Nottingham. Tram Lines and Train Lines running parrallel to each other and pedestrians crossing the lines.

Post processed in GIMP with a tint (rather than hint) of Dynamic Range Increase.

I like the candidness and the composition of this shot. All the lines are awesome...everybody's got somewhere they need to be.

A far cry from Sherwood Forest!

Thanks for sharing. Is this safe crossing lines with prams like that? Yes trains do no not play a big part of our lives here where I stay. There is a railway line nearby but only good trains passing with goods and cars. Going from Johannesburg to Cape Town.

I love this urban landscape!

I like the amount of people who happen to be crossing at the same time. Scary really when you think of how fast the trains run!

Very nice everyday shot. Love how you captured the people crossing the railway lines. Looks like a busy place (for pedestrians).

@ivan @annied @sangwann @busylady @quietpurplehaze @sdutoit @allie912 @eyesmile thanks everyone for your kind comments on this shot , barriers stop pedestrians from crossing the railway line when a train comes. No barriers for the trams though :)

Eyes peeled here then......it looks a busy crossing!
