one city through our lenses
A more updated relative to Stockholm by Pixels is here: stockholmbypixels.se
Before arriving at Huvudsta, you will encounter Västra Skogen ("the Western Forest") subway station - assuming that you're travelling from the city. Västra Skogen is a hub where you can change trains between the Hjulsta and the Akalla lines.

Nice colourful capture of 3 relaxed young men. I like it.
Hejsan! Our friends the Nordstroms left for Stockholm yesterday with Icelandair! I'm soooo jealous! Halsningar fran Hagen
Nice slice of urban life! I like this colorful rhombus pattern behind the guys.
What's this thing at left in the foreground?

love the look of your underground stations.
Do you see the face in the foreground? If not, do read on!
Glennis: Thanks. It is a colourful station indeed. One of many. Glad you like it too.
Leif Hagen: Hej! Maybe you'll find an opportunity to stop by and try our subway as well, one of these days?
Buenos Aires Photoblog: Stay tuned for more glimpses from Västra skogen. And thanks for asking about the foreground, I made a point of including this in the photo and then forgot to comment on the object. All over the station you can find round stony objects which are in fact the profile of a face regardless of what angle you view it from. It's sort of an artistic signature of Västra Skogen.
Alexander: And a bit exciting too, there are footbridges and several tracks and what have you. Most of our stations tend to be rather simple. One platform, two tracks, period.
Jazzy: In fairness, most stations are old and somewhat dull. As you can imagine, it's more interesting to stroll around these relatively new stations.
Thanks all for hanging around Västra Skogen with us.
Another colourful underground moment!
Very well composed! All decorative elements are truly eye-catching.
Love this one Per! As said by others: well composed, colours, patterns, relaxed.
Youe angle is great! Lovely photo of daily life!
I like the colors. Nice slice-of-life shot, Per Stromsjo!
It's very colorful. Looks like they're having an interesting conversation as well!
We'll return for another glimpse one of these days.
cieldequimper: The place to be!
JM: Thanks. I've got several favourite stations by now and this is certainly one of them.
Peter Fristedt: It should be a laid-back time of year. Incidentally, I never figured out whether these guys are in fact tourists but that's my guess.
m_m: I wish every season could be as relaxed!
Jacob: Oddly, most of this station is grey but these patterns of tiles are what we remember. Powerful.
Halcyon: What better way to spend those minutes waiting for a train?
Thanks all.
happy to see such a nice photo :)
Have I told you how much I like your people shots?
Part of this line is currently closed due to the construction of a new rail tunnel under the city. More on that coming up.
exposemaximum: Ain't nothing like everyday life.
Tinsie: Do feel free to remind me! ;)
Again, thanks all.
