Josh great arty picture. I like all the different shapes of the building. Great that you take the shot right in the middle. Good idea. The people are a good detail! Well seen.

nice composition here, symmetry... geometry - lines and circles on the ceiling.. B&W is ok here, some details are lost though. anyway, nice

Excellent! I myself really like shots in or around subway stations...there is something about them that I can't put into words. What I like here is the repetitive pattern of the lights as well as the nicely spaced out people in the frame. The information board is a nice divider between "two" images. Good job!

Nice, very nice Josh! A picture with both an architectural motive as well as an informative daily life documentary motive. I like it a lot! Great work!

This reminds me of subway stations I have visited. Unluckily in my city there's no subway --and I live in a city big enough to need several lines already.
I like the symmetry of your picture, half circles left and right, people also at both sides --and even columns.
Interestingly you don't show what is writen on the panel that everybody here is reading. Perhaps the subway map? Maybe on a nother shot.

Very nice work here, the black and white work very well here, good perspective, I like the girls on eitherside of the notice boards.

The lights on the top go down a treat too, well done

I like how the overall symmetry is broken by the peopple left and right of the panel, the use of B/W.
Well seen and done, Josh.

Symetrical view with and a vanishing point so far. A great pause in this place where movement is everywhere. Great picture and B&W let's us focus on details.

The thing that makes this special is how you fooled us so cleverly. The people look like a group but relations seem akward. This is because we can´t see the billboard, the frame of it could just as well be a pole. At least I think there is a billboard, otherwise I fooled myself ;o)

It's great how you have the board as a simple 2 dimensional object in this photo. It separates what looks like two different worlds. The people on either side look at each other but seem totally unaware of the presence of the other. And the man walking between both sides is great. He seems so disjointed like he is split down the middle. Not only because he is but it seems like he's actually been cut in two pieces. He's in both worlds. The interlinking circles on top also adds a very nice top for this view. Very well seen and photographed. You chose the perfect spot and time.

Great Daily live picture Josh.

I like the symmetry and diferent geometry shapes. The people give live to this photo.

Well done
