Digital photography has made photography of the London Underground vastly easier than with film.<\/p>\n

ISO 400 too slow? Notch it up to 1000, or 1600, or higher.<\/p>\n

In the old days with film I\u2019d rarely experiment with any lens longer than 100mm underground. Not only were my longer lenses relatively slow, but trying to keep them steady at low shutter speeds was impractical.<\/p>\n

Today, I push up the ISO and snap away.<\/p>\n

The adjustable rear screen on my FujiFilm X-T1 is a great tool for photographing from the hip. Back in the old days, I\u2019d take the prism off my Nikon F3T for a similar technique, but this made focusing difficult.<\/p>\n

I made these photos in Early May 2016. For me the Underground is more than just photos of the trains and tunnels.<\/p>\n

Which is your favorite?<\/p>\n
