I love that he's the only face - everyone else is turned away.

Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the photo. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Spoon boy: There is no photograph.
Neo: There is no photograph?
Spoon boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the photograph that bends, it is only yourself.
btw, i've just watched austria-germany on a French channel, they kept saying "oh-lala!.."... "oh-lalalalala.."... what's up with that?

I love the play of light on this picture, the contrast between the center and the edges. It gives the impression that the rather rich looking man stands alone in the crowded bus.

Great photo Gonzale!
Everything is great! I love the lights on this one!
I guess there's nothing more to say about it, the other persons said everything. Congratulations!
He looks like Luca Brasi from "The Godfather"

I think you did very good at capturing the atmosphere here - The man seems (I think from his own expessionlessness) humiliated to be there, but resolve to do what he has to do...

oui, j'ai eu une longue hesitation entre celle là qui est floue mais ou j'aime ce qui se passe, et une autre que j'ai prise quelques secondes après, nette, mais où il se passait pas la meme chose exactement. après consultation de moi et d'un tiers, celle là a gagné

have you ever been to albania?

Gonzale In reply to Stalker72 [2008-05-26 12:20:24 +0000 UTC]
oh. well in that case, yes i'm aware, i stayed there long enough to notice. but... that's not what i expected as a reaction to this photograph.
i do'nt think the albanians who would see this photo and read the comments would be happy that someone depicts them as "poor people". on a photo that doesnt even convey that idea.
but oh well, i guess you needed to point it out.

The hunched postures of the other passengers are interesting.
Maybe you should have boosted your iso ?

Clockwork-Sky In reply to Gonzale [2008-05-26 12:28:38 +0000 UTC]
so that you could pick up more detail perhaps?

Gonzale In reply to Clockwork-Sky [2008-05-26 13:13:01 +0000 UTC]
hmmm... i'm not sure details are really important.. as i said to another person (in french though) i have another photo of this scene, that i took a few seconds later and that is sharp, but whats happening inside the frame is less interesting... so after a lot of thinking, i chose this one.
the most important thing to me here is the atmosphere... so yeah.
