Spring is here and I had taken some shots of tulip trees beginning to blossom and robins gobbling worms. But in fact the weather has been cold and dreary and this shot, taken at the Cumberland Stop of the Blue Line, seemed more to reflect the current mood in Chicago

People like this guy wait upstairs because it is less cold than standing on the platform in the wind and elements. However, it is cold, unheated in fact, and dreary at this entrance area, too.
The photo was modified using Alien Skin Exposure 2. It mimics a Kodak film pushed to 3200 ISO with heavy grain. I was trying to create a feeling of blue. Of ennui.
