 Subway Station at Hollywood and Highland (near the Kodak Theater). Nice lines and patterns, but they lead to... nothing special, which I think is why this will get hammered.

Congrats. This was one of my favourites for this challenge - I loved the lines and the curve, perhaps it was just not long enough

Very nicely seen and composed.
Perhaps needs a very slight CCW rotation to ease the eye. (minor technicality..)

Awesome lines that lead your eye into the shot. Great lighting and textures. What subway is this? I've never been in one before, but when ya see them on TV or movies they don't look cool like this. Now the problem Your lines lead deep into the shot and draw you directly to... a bench and a couple of service doors. Anticlimatic to say the least.

The lines really lead the eye in. I like the detail and the lighting, which I would guess was pretty difficult to get right.

good lines, would have been more effective if you could have had more hoops...

Excellant example of leading lines AND lines as a compositional element. Good technical execution. Well done.

Interesting shot, but there is a little lack of focus, the eye is not sure where to go.

This is definitely one of my top picks. The curves definitely grab the viewers attention and although the lines don't really lead to anything too interesting, I still think it works well.
