I headed downtown early to try to get some shots in before work. Downtown Chicago at 6:30am and about 10 degrees I wondered around looking for people congregating. I finally parked myself at the bottom of an El Red Line station. I took pictures of train commuters coming down the stairs and, between trains, I shot commuters crossing the street. I like the circle of light in the background of the man's upper body and the white streak from the stairs leading down to the man.

The good news: With minimal editing I can't screw it up with my usual sloppy trial and error editing job.

Not many people for being the morning rush.

I like the execution of this shot a lot. You've done a great job of isolating your subject. Unfortunately, the truck, in the background, is a huge distraction for me. Still, a nice shot.
