Very reminiscent of O. Winston Link and his famous series of night-time train photography from the mid 1950's America. In fact, I had to double-check it wasn't one of his.

I consider it to have more of a Edward Hopper and Roll Hardy artistic influence, as it's amazing what is possible with a few well placed LEDs and some smartphone photo processing...
