Metro North commuter train at Grand Central Terminal, Friday evening - looks like all the suits were already in the Hamptons, so what you see here are all the ordinary, hard working people ;-)

Are these people getting off the train at GCT? That wouldn't be at 537, would it.
Not an interesting image. Needs more dof. 4 sjgleah

This is a well constructed picture idea, but I'm not sure if the people are intentionally out of focus? I may have missed the point, but I think a bounced flash would have made this a much better shot - be hey, I'm no pro... Good luck...

All those people and not a single smile. Good contrast between the blured people and thier crisp surroundings. Good job. tomlewis1980

The blur is awesome to show the hustle and bustle of the subway/metro system. Well done.

Nice. I like it. The slight motion works in this photograph.

to busy for me, I will stay in the country

Looks more like tourists than office workers.

I really want to like this shot, but their is just too much motion to really get behind it. The light reflections on the platform number is a little distracting. I started you with an 8, but feel I have to take that down, just a little, how about 7? Swash

Formally, the angles need altering. No obvious point of focus

this picture makes me really glad i am in a rural area. :-) the blur shows a sense of motion, but for me, there is too much in the picture. it does give a sense of crowdedness, though. karmat

Unfortunately it's only Tuesday... Love the shot, the people in motion in contrast to the people in focus. Very nice job. Danie:o)
07/30/2002 12:23:00 PM
I hear that!!

Good concept and a great sense of motion. Great expressions on the faces too. The lighting is perhaps a touch too harsh on the 22 sign and the lighting strips. But that's nit picking. Well done.
07/30/2002 05:57:00 AM
what a situation!!! :) love it

Have you ever seen Chronos or Baraka? If you haven't, go rent them on DVD. They may be hard to find, though.
07/29/2002 03:48:00 PM
good depth
07/29/2002 03:05:00 PM
great shot...
07/29/2002 12:48:00 PM
The end of the corporate week. Good thinking.
07/29/2002 11:09:00 AM
This is very well done. I am sorry that I can not add any suggestions for improvement.
07/29/2002 08:32:00 AM
Nice concept. Kind of hard to get everybody to stand still for the shot, isn't it?
07/29/2002 12:30:00 AM
I just love this photo.
