The current challenge asks: “So what’s your muse — what subject do you turn to frequently, more inspired each time?” Strangely my inspiration comes from my daily journeys, commuting on the metro, descending the escalators of various metro stations. I like the symmetry, the sense of motion and the slightly naughty idea of taking photos in forbidden places. (In Tbilisi taking photos on the metro is forbidden).
I find I have entered lots of photos of descending the metro escalators into these weekly photo challenges.
A cropped version of this is the background for my blog title.
Some of those give me vertigo 🙂
Very clever and original muse. I love the figures who have their back to you. They are so natural because they have no idea you are photographing them.
My kind of person shot–where they don’t know I’m taking one. 🙂

Very cool photos! I love the incredible appearance of depth!
Oooh… these do make me feel like I’m falling. Very cool subject to explore. I love the light and angles
I’m glad you like them…. it certainly stimulates my photography…my underground muse
Such a unique and interesting muse; I will have to watch more carefully in the train stations!
Everyday I take the metro, everyday I carry my camera, my shots come from my daily experience. The escalators down to the train make for some fun images.
A funny thing happened when I closed this page; the images disappeared first, leaving only the captions and for a brief second I thought I had missed a poem at the bottom of your page about decending into the Metro…
I’m no poet, photography is my medium for expression.
