In April 2017, I used my Lumix LX7 to photograph the Genoa, Italy Metro.

Dark Alleys of Genova.
Genova (Genoa, Italy) is an old Mediterranean port city, famous as the home of Christopher Columbus .
(Facebook viewers will need to click on this post to see the full photo as FB has tends to crop vertical images to the horizontal with little consideration for content).
The old city is a maze of dark narrow alleys where the sun rarely shines.

Italian Challenges.
It was a bright April 2017 morning when I arrived at Genova Piazza Principe. The station is scenically situated in an open area between two tunnels.
The challenge of making visually impressive photos of Italian railways lies in finding ways to handle the infrastructure effectively.
Italian Railways are very heavily built and largely electrified. The result is a plethora of columns, poles, masts, wires and other necessary, yet visually distracting elements that can make finding a clean composition a difficult task.
Throw in some graffiti, litter, and a few dodgy shadows, and a photo can appear overly busy and cluttered, so careful attention to detail is a must.
