Métro Gare d'Austerlitz
As you look beyond the Métro platform, you can see the trains approach and depart. So many of the stations now protect the awaiting passengers with glass panels and the view is only be into the darkness of the subway tunnels. I rather enjoy the few above-ground stations and the ability, for now, to peer down the winding tracks.
If you are vacationing during these holiday weeks,
be safe and travel well.

Ma chère Génie je te souhaite une très belle année, qu'elle soit remplie de douceurs et de rêves.

Love the straight lines in the window and the sinuous curves in the railway track Genie.
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the above ground stations.
ReplyDeleteSomething very evocative about empty tracks.

ReplyDeleteA nice bend makes the desire to know what lay behind only bigger. Nice one again Genie.
ReplyDeleteThe curve of the tracks makes this photo even more appealing!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy new year from my country, the Philippines, to yours. :)
ReplyDeleteNice movement in this photo with the curving tracks. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! What a great shot! It reminds me of an André Kertész photo.
