How you get these compositions is a great mystery to me ... do you always have your eyes on the viewfinder?
This image is difficult to describe ... but wonderful.

Hi Animesh,
great atmosphere in this B&W POV (good use of this treatment).
I like the crossing lookings between the old man on the opposite train and the boy on the foreground.

I like the 'construction' of the pic...
You can feel the atmosphere of that scene right away...
Unusual and really good stuff, Animesh

This train stuff in India...?

It must be incredibly strong element of everyday living in that country - is it ?

Stay warm

The two men on the other train and the boy make a nice triangle, with two of the three connected to each other by their gazes, despite the physical separation. So that part works very well. But for me there is too much blackness on the right that doesn't really complement the scene on the left. I'd like it better with half as much blackness over there, i.e. crop off the right 3-4 cm. Just one opinion, though. Regards, Ken.

Ciao Animesh,
very interesting image that tells of travels and life. Great expressions on the two men's faces and mysterious profiles of the others people. Wonderful B&W tones.
Regards

I thought I would never be surprised by this kind of shot from India. I'm happy to see this is not the case. Wonderfull slice of life capture. The story is there, the furtive moment, the traveling atmosphere. Just great ! The 35 summicron is a killer for the rendering.
