In the Metro - Staring Photo

Photographer’s Note

Waiting for the complete stop of the Metro, Line M2, Budapest.

As in most European countries, Budpest boats a quite efficient Metro system that we utilized to the best we could (over 99% of our transportation witin budapest boundaries). I have shot several pictures of the metro along the 8 days we visited at the city which I will post in the coming days...

A nice catch, Chen. He looks almost angry, for no apparent reason. Maybe he missed the train. I like the graininess--it fits the location. Nice framing, too, crowding the man over to one side. Regards, Ken.

Hello Chen,
very dynamic image, and I like it that it is tilted: this adds more dynamism and spontaniety :) I can't guess what the man is thinking about but his facial expression really looks like a mixture of anger and disappointment.
I see that the metro train is the Russian train: we have the same trains in Moscow metro. They are so noisy!...
Best wishes,
Elena

Hello Chen,
This picture holds my attention. There's much to see and ponder as I view it-- the train itself, the reflections, the people in the train and the man standing by staring. Superb composition and I like the effectiveness of black and white.
Kind regards,
Betty
