Escalator at a Modern NYC Subway Entrance

A photorealistic, cinematic scene of people using an escalator at a modern subway entrance in New York City. Inside a bright glass-and-steel atrium, an escalator ascends from the subterranean station to the street. Diverse commuters—men and women of various ethnicities and ages—ride the escalator: some looking at phones, others chatting, many with backpacks, coats, and scarves. The architecture features sleek glass walls, chrome handrails, polished concrete floors, and hanging LED signage. Through the glass, hints of the NYC streetscape: yellow cabs, distant skyline, and urban signage. Warm late-afternoon glow with reflections on glass, shallow depth of field on the foreground escalator, hyper-detailed textures, realistic shadows, 8K quality.
