stoic

it's been an interesting week taking public transit to work, although commuters stoic attitudes can make it seem like you are at a party where the people don't mix well...the noise, the bouncing about in the bus, and the sickly light don't help much either

Despite everything, you came up with a magnificent piece of photo journalism. Nicely done. ~V~

You have created a fantastic description in words and graphics!! That sickly light is the worst part for me...BV

An apt title and terrific shot, David. Brings back memories of many similar rides in Calgary. V.

The variety and impersonalness of public transportation; ants have better parties :)

Gotta love the skate-dude taking a bus :o))...great street study here David

A scene repeated on buses and trams the world over - maybe without the skateboard!

Colin Storey		26-Nov-2010 18:46
You summarise public transport so well, ours is always unreliable to. Nice shot of the different commuters.

Another great opportunity for interesting fotos! Love the mix of people...stoic is the right description...and particulary like the skate boarder in front! You can do so interesting study of people on public transport!

I hate that kind of party ;-)

Blandine Mangin		26-Nov-2010 16:58
une belle scène du quotidien ! v

Cool perspective with all these different poses, and it looks like one adventurous man is skateboarding in the cold weather. I commuted on buses and trains in Washington, DC for 14 years and got used to it. I got a lot of reading and a considerable amount of work done while commuting on public transport. Can't say I miss it.

Les attitudes sont bien captées... V
