Description
A long straight corridor through the track portal doors leads down to the the train and continuation of the commuter's journey home at Grand Central Terminal in New York City.
Grand Central Terminal stands as one of America's greatest transportation hubs, and one of New York City's most iconic buildings. It is both a national institution and an international example of giving new life to a historic building rather than demolition and reconstruction. Over the course of a colorful and tumultuous 100-year history, Grand Central has gone from being simply the beginning and terminating point of long-distance rail travel, to being the iconic home of Metro-North Railroad and a destination for commuters, tourists and residents. Grand Central boasts restaurants, cocktail lounges, a gourmet market, and numerous specialty shops. (Information obtained from Wikipedia)

Your image creates an uneasy tension in me with it's off kilter horizon line, eerily lit hallway and ominous 'track 38' sign - A masterful capture indeed Jamie!! I love it!
