Hampstead Underground Station, London, England

Really like Hampstead Underground station and its simplicity in design and features. Generally very quiet too. What stands out for me is the contrasting lines from the dark horizontal lines and the light tiles its next to, works really well with a fisheye lens.

Tomorrow is the day I have finally been able to decide to get myself into London. Just not had the time with Christmas nearly on top of us but the New Year will be great to get out with the camera and get some new material. I am sure most photographers will get this problem.

I have some very interesting and exciting news about my photography but will let you know in the next upload, will keep you all in suspense ;-).

Information
Hampstead tube station is a London Underground station in Hampstead, north London NW3 1QG. The station is on the Edgware branch of the Northern Line, between Golders Green and Belsize Park stations, and on the boundary between Travelcard Zone 2 and Zone 3.

The station was opened on 22 June 1907 by the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway. Located at the junction of Heath Street and Hampstead High Street, the name Heath Street was proposed for the station before opening: indeed, the original tiled station signs on the platform walls, recently restored, still read "Heath Street". Hampstead is on a steep hill and the station platforms are the deepest on the London Underground network, at 58.5 metres or 192 feet below ground level. It has the deepest lift shaft on the Underground at 181 feet which houses high-speed lifts. There is also a spiral emergency staircase, made up of over 320 steps.

To the north, between Hampstead and Golders Green stations is the uncompleted North End or Bull & Bush station. Hampstead Heath station on the North London Line is a 10- to 15-minute walk east.
