Hey all, found this one digging through some old photos and liked it a lot more than when I initially took it, I think it really does a good job of conveying the frantic energy of the metro. Not sure what direction I want to take it in the edit though, so I thought I'd ask for some advice!

Cool photo. Cropping it ever so slightly to completely remove the person on the left would help focus the composition. The blue, pink and yellow lights are really interesting Emphasizing the lights by adding a gaussian blur filter could help bring a glowing luminosity to the lights and make the photo more captivating. I would be curious to see how increasing the blacks and shadows effect the photo - might give it more of a mood. It might also be nice to try turning down saturation and turn luminosity up.

I would try bringing down the exposure and doing something with all the different light sources. Might be too bright to do anything cool with it, but worth a shot!
