London Underground by Adam Johnson
Canon EOS 800D, 13mm, 1/15sec at f/6.3, ISO 1600
Birmingham-based Adam uploaded this picture to Flickr using #appicoftheweek.
He says, ‘I think of myself as a very amateurish photographer, I love taking pictures
but hate sitting on a laptop afterwards. This was taken in London, at Southwark
Underground Station on the Jubilee Line, and is part of a project I decided to do
on the London Underground, as I have fallen in love with its architecture. One
challenge is to get
people-free shots,
and with no tripods
or flash allowed it
can make it even
more difficult for
me to get sharp
shots.’ See more of
