Default Photography underground


The only restrictions are that a tripod should not be used, you dont
get too close to the platform edge and NEVER EVER EVER use the flash
or those red lights they now have. They can momentarily "blind" the
driver.


I was about two meters away from the platform (and there was a barrier
at the edge of the platform), the flash was disabled and no red lights
at all (I specifically check for this before filming), and of course
no tripod.


You should have then asked the station supervisor if they minded.


I was making photos for myself (well, I will publish most of them on
my homepage and some at Wikipedia) - I do not want to inconvenience LU
staff with my hobby...


Did you get the Officers' details?


Nope, I was quite scared actually. Not to mention that this was near
large group of passengers waiting for the train - I got some funny
looks later in the train.


Next time, if your around photographing for a project or something,
see the Station Supervisor.
