 I ride the Metro to and from work 3 days a week. This man usually boards the bus at the same stop as I. He sits on the outside of a seat towards the back.

I tried this in color and in sepia, but liked it better in B&W. (I hope you do as well :-) A woman was sitting on the left towards the front. I cloned her out. I liked the effect with one lone passenger (+ me).

USM and levels/curves were applied ever so slightly...

Thanks for looking, commenting and/or voting.

Faceless is so often synonymous with nameless.

Very nice. A very suitable composition for the subject chosen and especially for the challenge. Plus an intelligent, thought-provoking title. 7

Awesome shot, but the man is a little out of focus. 9

Great title, interesting photo. Makes you think about the "story" behind it.

I like the composition, but it'd be better if the man (specifically his hair) were in focus.

His head seems blurry, but I really like the idea.
