Metro stations are very dark. I had to open the shutter for 1/3 of a second to get this picture. That's where the blur comes from; it's how much she moved in that time.
I like the geometric quality of this picture, the triangle of the woman contrasting with the hexagons of the floor and the rectangles of the train and walls. The column at left appears curved because of the distortion caused by the camera lens when it is at full wide angle.
