New York Subway, Grand Central–42nd Street Station

from a visiter's point of view, New York never dies, somethings always happening there. So many goes there to pursue the American dreams, some may succeed, some may not.

NY Subway,is where everyone gathers, some maybe busy, some may just look for something to do, whatever it is, they will join in together for that short journey, 24 hours a day,365 days a year, the subway will always be there take them to places they have to be.

You see all kinds of people there, some business man who is obviously nervous about his upcoming presentation, the other corner there is a christian women who takes her stage and spread her gospel to everyone who like to listen, the person standing in front of you will turn up his portable stereo and start break dancing infont of everyone, the other side of train is a huge family of 7, dressing casualy, seemingly going to a fun day at a festival...

you learn a lot about a city and its life just to have a 10 minute subway ride.

Yeah, when I take photos in/of the public, I start to feel like a stalker or something. When I took the photo of the pruple flowers the lady that owned the house got all wierd on us. Thank God for distracted people.

Lovely shot

It would even look better if you could crop it from the side of the man in black. It would add symmetry and focus the eye on the crowd.

In my humble opinion.:)

thank you very much, this shot was completely random , infact when i took it it was just such an ordinary scene and thats why i give this shot the title because it just wasnt any special or anything, i was a visitor to new york, i actually live in a relatively small city in canada.
