Subway Descent

Blurred into obscurity, this is a picture of the long escalators to the Moscow subways. Known for their depth, the subway stations would have 4 escalators, filled to the brim, feeding people up and down.

Often, there was a person at the bottom of the escalator who spent all day making comments broadcast to the captive audience over loudspeakers. Once, when I asked what the person was saying, I was told that she was making fun of the way someone was dressed.

Here the people are a blur, rushing off to their next Destination faster than my camera's shutter speed.
