Please Stand Behind The Yellow Brick Road!
Fun photo featuring the Glinda, the Good Witch of the South from the film Wicked on a poster at Bank London Underground station.
It looks like Ariana Grande is reaching out to catch the train!

Seven Sisters London Underground station is named after a ring of 7 elm trees that were planted over 400 years ago.
The 7 trees have been replanted a number of times, always by 7 sisters. The current sisters are Hornbeam trees & were planted in 1997 by 5 families of 7 sisters.

yes you can actually do a long exposure as you move as well. If you remind me I will show you some of my experiments with positive results

How do you pose while you wait?

In The Spotlight - Baker Street
The dramatic lighting & architecture at Baker St station naturally encourages commuters to wait in the spotlight. I always think it looks like people are ready to perform on stage.
So I asked dancer Viola to pose under the lights, ready to dance.

Favourite Stations - Piccadilly Circus
Meet Katie, a London Blue Badge tourist guide whose favourite Tube station is Piccadilly Circus.
I've started a new branch of the Tube Mapper project exploring people's favourite stations or stops on the London Underground Tube Map. I meet people at their favourite stations, taking photos and interviewing them to find out what makes it so special.
The station opened on 10 March 1906, this Zone 1 station is served by the Bakerloo and Piccadilly lines — but for Katie, it’s much more than just a stop on the map.
Growing up a little further out of London, she remembers the feeling of stepping out of Piccadilly Circus and instantly knowing she was in the heart of the city. The noise, the lights, the architecture, all the tiny details above your eyeline, create that unmistakable “this is London” moment.
Do you have a favourite Tube station?

Playing the Platform Piano
Portrait from my 'favourite stations' project. Here's Charlotte pretending to play the floor tiles which look a bit like piano keys.
It's amazing how many people have never noticed this feature at Waterloo tube station. The platform piano keys were added in 1986-1988 when the station was retiled based on artist Christopher Tipping's ‘theatrical themes’ design.

I've started exploring people's favourite stations or stops on the London Underground Tube Map. I meet people at their favourite stations, taking photos and interviewing them to find out what makes it so special.
Originally named Brompton (Gloucester Road) when it opened on 1 October 1868, Gloucester Road is now a busy Zone 1 station served by the District, Circle & Piccadilly lines.
Anthony loves showcasing the beautiful, often overlooked parts of London. For him every area, including every tube station, tells it's own unique story.
“The minute I stepped off the train at Gloucester Road, I knew it was my favourite.”
From the warm yellow lighting to the striking Victorian architecture and the art installation on Platform 4, the station feels like a time capsule, almost like stepping into a museum.

Does the UK have an official rainy season? Or does it just last the whole year?
Lucky for me I love the rain and I could feel a puddle beckoning me at Becontree London Underground station.
It's always worth getting wet knees for a good photo!

I always enjoy admiring the shift in architecture as I transfer from the London Underground into the Elizabeth line. This photo is taken from the escalators at Bond Street station.

Tfl were testing the new Piccadilly line trains over the weekend, and luckily I managed to find some in the wild and get a few shots.
Here's the train arriving at Hammersmith London Underground station, I love how the lights look in the darkness.

I finally managed to see one of the new Piccadilly line trains at Hammersmith station today. They were being tested on the closed Piccadilly line. I really love them, and I managed to get a few cool shots. I will share some photos shortly.

Meet Emmanuel, aka the Black Train Boy, a transport content creator whose favourite station in London is Farringdon.
I've started a new branch of the Tube Mapper project exploring people's favourite stations on the London Underground Map.
What is your favourite station, & why?

One of my favourite memories was when I met up with a Spiderman cosplayer on the London Underground. People treated him like the real Spiderman! Hugs, selfies etc. I almost lost it when a tourist asked him for directions. I did manage to capture a photo of it through the laughter

I've started exploring people's favourite stations on the London Underground Map. I take photos & interview people to find out what makes these places so special.
Here's Shalaka, Emmanuel, Jason & Nay. Do you recognise their favourite stations & what's yours?

it is but I didn't want to explain in my post. I think it's actually called a moving walkway, Travolator was the company name that was originally there. I think 🤔

Super Surprise
My son's Lego Superman joined me on my journey to work today.
Sometimes I'll put my hands in my coat pocket & will be rewarded with a random toy that I'll have no idea how it got there. However, Superman was a pleasant surprise so I made him fly on the escalator!

Fashion design student Ema found an abandoned bus stop button near Alperton on the 83 bus stop route and came up with the idea of using it in a bus inspired outfit.
Here's a photo taken of her on a bus at Turnpike Lane Bus & Tube Station.

In The Spotlight
Black and white version of this photo focusing on the dramatic lighting & architecture at Baker Station. Travellers naturally wait in the spotlight, so I always thought it looked like they were ready to perform on stage.
So dancer Viola obliged with this pose.

Royal Victoria Dock has a special place in my heart as the area inspired me to start photography.
I'm a bit biased, but I think travelling on the cable cars is one of the best locations to view the sunset in London. It's also a great subject to capture during the sunset as well.

I couldn't resist this puddle outside Euston London Underground station. I love the colourful reflections of the building lights contrasted with the deep black night sky.

Jump Into 2026
I love the secret feature at Nine Elms London Underground station that reveals itself during a sunny day.
If you arrive at the perfect moment, the roundel logo is beautifully projected onto the floor.
So I took Dancer Andreya with me to interact with the scene.

My favourite thing about the Bakerloop London Buses is that they have the Bakerloo line Moquette pattern on their seats.
Here's photos of Andreya trying to blend in! Last photo is on the tube.

Favourite Stations - Finsbury Park
Meet Shalaka the Stand-up comedian who surprisingly has a PHD about trains. Her favourite station is Finsbury Park.
I've started a new branch of the Tube Mapper project exploring people's favourite station or stop on the London Underground Tube Map. I meet people at their favourite stations, taking photos and interviewing them to find out what makes it so special.
"My favorite thing about Finsbury park is when you get off the Piccadilly line... the Victoria Line is in the same direction in a passageway across from each other. So you can literally get off one tube and onto another without having to walk anywhere and that is genius."
Here are some photos of Shalaka at her favourite station.
What is your favourite station, and why?

This comes up every year when I design the Tube Mapper Calendar.
Should Calendars start on a Monday or Sunday? I get messages from people requesting both, and whichever I choose someone is disappointed.
What is your preference?
1. Start on Monday
2. Start on Sunday
3. Don't mind either way
More info on the Tube Mapper calendar here...
