Just as I pressed the shutter, the man on the platform decided to give me a little wave. I waved back just as my train arrived.

I’m embarrassed to admit how long its been since I’ve blogged on this site. No excuses…life has just been busy. In February we lost our beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Brady. His passing was very traumatic for me and my family and we were heartbroken. Brady was a very special dog and will live in […]
As a photographer there’s always so much to do. There never seems to be enough time in the day to accomplish everything I want to accomplish. As I’ve been doing more and more studio sessions I’ve been determined to actually photographer my own boys. The problem was their schedule was harder to work around than […]
My photographic muse is my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Brady. This boy is so sweet and loving and while he’s not a fan of having his picture taken there’s nothing he wouldn’t do for a treat ;). This past weekend I decided I needed some new pictures of Brady and having just purchased a new […]
very nice!

There is also a woman next to the man who is waving. She has a beautiful smile. Both are the center place as a pair.

The black & white format really works in this image. There is a lot going on. Love the couple who have noticed your presence. “You gotta pay attention!”

I can see why this is one of your favourite shots. It’s a great photo. So much going on along the platform, and yet it’s all contained with a strong composition. It’s like windows of life in the subway.

The wave is a nice touch 🙂 The way the scene is divided into a triptych by the pillars works really well too by engaging the viewer in each part rather than getting ‘lost’ in the whole.

It seems like New York City is just one of the very special places in the world for photographing people in the urban environment. And you’re excellent at it. I really like this image. My neighborhood in Seattle is about a week away from opening up its very first subway station. It won’t have the character of the platform here (it’ll be far too bright and modern).
