Mid-point stop, Agra-Jhansi Express, India, 2008

Our express train made a station stop at Morana. I photographed a family in the process of leaving the car. Shooting at 1/20th of a second, I deliberately add blur to both the car and the people, providing a sense of movement and urgency. I also contrast the genuine emotions of the passengers to the faked smile of the model in a cellular service advertisement on the wall at right.

Glad you picked that up, Jenene. It almost is as if the baby is listening to the lady in the advertisement.

The baby's eyes and the model's mirror each other .. perhaps reassuring that those in charge are more than adequate. Jenene
