The Washington DC Metro looks how the 1970s expected the future to be. But 40 years later that future is here and this living vision of modern transportation is decaying under our feet. Decades of mismanagement have lead to disrepair, proving once again that the biggest challenge we will face in any version of our future remains ourselves.

For a subject to be strong enough to be worth photographing, the relationship of its forms must be rigorously established. Composition starts when you situate your camera in space in relation to the object. For me, photography is the exploration in reality of the rhythm of surfaces, lines, or values; the eye carves out its subject, and the camera has only to do its work. That work is simply to print the eye’s decision on film. - Henri Cartier-Bresson - on composition. "American Photo", September/October 1997, page: 76
