Now there's a shot most of us see everyday in a big city but, never think to take a shot of it. We're usually too busy trying not to stare at anyone to think to take the shot! Great focus and clarity as well as tones.

I wish I had the guts to do this. When I have my camera with me people stare at it or look at me really mean. Great tones.

Something is a bit bizarre about this photo, I can't quite put my finger on it....oh, yes! They all have faces. ;)

I love photos that stop time when telling a story. Excellent focus and processing.

Great simple street scene. You really captured the essence of being on the subway.

Interesting street photo. I like the interaction between the people and most particularly the contrast between the young man in the foreground and the gentleman sitting.

A very pleasing candid shot, full of interest here.....

Cool candid! Love the layers of people and the way you isolated and framed the couple in focus.

Not really sure about this image, I think I find the gentleman sitting down on our left to have the most character, and may perhaps a better shot of him would be fantastic. Maybe what it is, is this shot is straight out the doors... I think a sharp angle to out the doors with the open doors not being center frame but to the side would make this a much stronger image.

Very good Sevil. Your street photography and candids are simply excellent.

I like this one a lot - I always think it's a shame that street photography doesn't do well on dpc except in specialist challenges - excellent composition and tones

He, he, I really like the expression of the guy at the bottom left :) As a b/w, it is very b/w, very black in some ways. Kinda graphic. Suits the subject.

As a composition, it's neat, although I'm not sure really what it's getting at. Maybe that's because I live in the country, and don't have much of an understanding of city things. What were you trying to show with this image?

Very New York, very cool. The grain adds a sense of urgency in life.

Your staging here really draws you into the photo, almost as if you can walk right into it. Nice job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Excellent tonal range here. You've done well to fill the photograph, but not make it busy. Grain is working.

inside and outside
the times square sign adds a whole bunch too

Completely awesome urban shot. The composition is amazing. As a thumb it looked like a triptych. Great job.

Interesting composition - the people look like they were placed in all their spots. Great candid!

I love train and subway shots. Wonderful cornucopia of people, action- wonderful story. Nice start~~~

Oh Sevil. . .I am going to loooove 30 days of your black and whites! This is so wonderfully you! As you know. . .I love all your urban photos and this one is no exception. It feels like you've stopped a moment and allowed us to share these people's worlds :)

Love it! Great composition.

Very nice, gives a good feeling of commuting in the big city. I actually like the background better than the foreground, it's more interesting with the people doing different things and with the signs.

the grain is due to the fact that it's quite dark in the subway. i'm glad that it created a nice effect for this picture.
 04/30/2007 08:07:29 PM
i like how no one seems to care that you are taking there photo... i like the grain also, gives a nice effect.

Eyes that always see everything, yet most often don't reflect what they are seeing... NYC, a different way of seeing. Fun photo.

Nice shot, like the grain.

Great dirty urban look. Guy at the bottom left looks like a great subject on his own, looks like he has a story to tell.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/30/2007 06:27:08 PM
it all about the shapes, and how you have filled the entire frame with them.

Interesting real life shot and great that no-one appears to be really concentrating on what you are doing. For me the noise kinda works in this image though it would be good to see a smoother shot. Very nice framing
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the street photography style with the grain and the muted tones - this works really well - especially with no one looking at you.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/30/2007 06:22:12 PM
a great slice of life and i love the postures of the ppl .. i like how i can see where it really is ie. "times square" .. how romantic!!! ... its a very busy photograph which is great, but i'm not absolutely sure that i like the composition ..:)

Love this. The grain is working well for me here, good blacks and good white tones too, good job
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/30/2007 06:18:32 PM
I just LOVE these slice of life photographs and the tones and noise work so well.

I'm just not bold enough to try them myself, but you have inspired me this morning - now if I just knew how to use public transport - GRIN!
