Had a lovely wander around the Transport Museum Depot in Acton today. So much nostalgia seeing all the old vehicles — definitely brought back some wonderful memories! 🚇❤️

I love capturing those moments where London Underground trains line up perfectly with station posters. With a little patience and a bit of luck, you can end up with some wonderfully amusing and unexpected shots.
Another photo of the narrow tiled pathway at Goodge Street station, easily one of my favourite locations on the Underground. Despite its striking appearance, it often goes unnoticed as passengers hurry towards the lifts.
Is this the narrowest location on the underground network?
Underground, Overground
I love finding locations where you can see Underground trains traveling over Overground trains (or vice versa).
This vantage point near East Putney station has beautiful views of tube trains traveling over the railway.
Abbey Road DLR station has confused so many Beatles fans that TfL installed a sign directing them to the real Abbey Road at St John's Wood, North West London.
So I thought it would be fun to bring the Beatles to East London instead, staging a tiny reunion cutout from a poster.
UNDER HOUSES
Composite photo looking down on the tracks near Bayswater London Underground station. I love the colourful houses!
Dried Raindrops
As I passed Hampstead Heath London Overground station, the dried raindrops on the window caught my eye. They turned the view beyond into something that felt more like a painting than a photograph.
Dried Raindrops
The dried raindrops on the window caught my eye as I passed Brondesbury Park London Overground station.
They turned the view beyond into something that felt more like a painting than a photograph.
Second version of this photo.
In the Spotlight
The dramatic lighting & architecture at Baker Street station naturally draw commuters into the spotlight. Every time I'm there, it feels as though they're about to step onto a stage
So I asked dancer Viola to pose beneath the lights, poised as if ready to dance
Take me to Greenwich!
Fun photo featuring the green witch Elphaba Thropp from the film Wicked on a poster at Bank London Underground station.
Note: alt tag feature not working for me currently
Under Over Over
Despite its name, the London Underground isn't always underground. This was taken at West Hampstead, where Underground trains pass above the London Overground.
I've made it a mission to find every spot in London where this topsy-turvy railway quirk happens.
Reflections
My puddle obsession continues with this shot taken at Moor Park London Underground station
Lines and Light
I love the way the light falls down the stairs at Golders Green London Underground station, turning an everyday scene into something quietly beautiful.
Golden Tracks
I love capturing photography of the Croydon Tram network, it feels like discovering a new secret line on the London Underground tube map.
Here's a shot of the track reflecting the golden light as sunset approached at Sandilands Tram stop.
Step Into The Weekend
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.
Featuring Dancer Andreya.
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.
Coming and going
Photo of the view from the end of the platform at Aldgate London Underground station, watching trains pass each other deep in the tunnel.
Black and white photo looking down the curved platform at Monument London Underground station.
Street Photography of London Trams
Some silly fun showcasing my love of capturing photography of the Croydon Tram network. It feels like discovering a new secret line on the London Underground tube map.
Ton of Bricks!
I love this visual pun on the wall tiles at Brixton London Underground station on the Victoria line.
Hypnotised by Cables
I recently found myself hypnotised by the visually pleasing cables at Earls Court London Underground station.
Are there any other stations that have their cables on display in a visually pleasing manner?
Almost Symmetrical
Looking down at Earl's Court platforms, I realised there's a very unlikely moment of 3 trains lining up.
The chance of this happening is astronomical. Instead I was happy with this result, capturing the train moving at back aligned with the front carriage
Another version of this photo featuring one of the largest roundels on the London Underground network, which can be found outside Battersea Power Station Station.
Dancer Andreya matched the blue so we took a few photos.
Are there any giant roundels at other stations?
Waiting
After years of capturing people waiting for trains, I can say that my favourite common waiting pose is the 'crossed legs lean'.
How do you pose while you wait?
Photo taken at Norwood Junction London Overground Station.
Wet reflections at Surrey Quays London overground station.
Will be on BBC radio London from 3.10pm talking about the favourite stations and the Tube Mapper project.
Arch - Crystal Palace
Photos looking down the stairs at Crystal Palace London Overground Station. I love the long shadows stretching across the platform. Featuring Andreya
Curves
Looking down the platform at Piccadilly Circus London Underground station.
Approaching Woodside
I love the overlooked Croydon Tram network. Here's a shot of a Tram arriving at Woodside Tram Stop.
Yesterday was crazy weather, and we are now officially in April showers territory. Luckily I love the rain!
Here's a wet reflection shot taken at North Harrow station.
Umbrella Talk
I was out hunting for puddle reflections on a rainy night, but instead I came across this lovely composition of two ladies taking in the rain at Highbury & Islington London Overground Station.
Street Photography of the Docklands Light Railway
Some silly fun showcasing some shots that I've taken of the DLR.
Featured locations: Cyprus, Pontoon Dock, Heron Quay, Cutty Sark, East India, Poplar, Canary Wharf
Late night reflections outside Belsize Park London Underground station.
Mundane Moments
Taken at Bounds Green London Underground station.
Tile Appreciation
Emergency staircases are a good place to find original tiling in these old buildings. This pathway leads to a spiral staircase. Taken at Belsize Park London Underground station.
Favourite Stations - Kensal Green
Meet Sarah, a train operator on the Bakerloo line, and her favourite station is Kensal Green.
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.
My puddle hunting continues. This photo was taken at Gunnersbury London Underground station.
What's so visually appealing about the London Underground network?
I get asked this all the time. The underground is like a beautiful living museum full of old and new. So much to visually discover and I enjoy trying to share what I love about the network through my photography.
Light and Shadow
Looking back to when I managed to get some shots of one of the new Docklands Light Railway trains.
Here's a photo of the train arriving at Beckton Park DLR station. I'm looking forward to when these are back in service again.
Dance into the Weekend!
Another fun photo of Viola dancing at Baker Street station.
Baker Street is one of my favourite stations on the London Underground to explore as there is so much to discover there!
Empty Carriage
I always enjoy the rare experience of looking down empty carriages when travelling on the London Underground network. Here's a photo taken as I arrived at Barking Riverside on the Suffragette line on the London Overground.
Going Up
I love the reflection of the lights on the escalator hand rail. Taken at London Bridge Underground station.
Tunnel Vision
While exploring Stonebridge Park London Underground station with my friend Sarah, we stumbled upon these beautiful tile patterns lining the platform tunnel.
I haven't been able to uncover the story behind the design yet, but if I do, I'll be sure to share it!
Street Photography of the Elizabeth line
Some silly fun showcasing my love of capturing photography on the Elizabeth line.
Do you recognise any stations?
I love noticing little moments of symmetry as I travel on the London Underground network. I spotted this perfect alignment at Whitechapel station.
Across Platforms
A moment, looking down at the platforms at Earls Court London Underground station
Abbey Road DLR station has confused so many Beatles fans that TfL installed a sign directing them to the real Abbey Road at St John's Wood, North West London.
So I thought it would be fun to bring the Beatles to East London instead, staging a tiny reunion cutout from a poster.

@clarissawam@mefi.social haha 😂
It's 1st April!
Photography from my 2026 Calendar
I've always loved the blue and yellow arch at Barbican station. So I invited dancer Andreya to interact with the architectural curves.
