grand central station in new york city, actually shot a bit before rush hour started. definitely fits criteria of a particular period, region, and environment (okay, off-subject interpretation, long title . . . i can't wait to get my '4'!).

Cool motion pic, for that part you've done very well. Even though humans are animals, this does not work for me as a fauna challenge subject. For a motion, or city life type challenge, I could score this very well. 6 is about the top I can go for Fauna. Rob the Swash
Very cool picture. A bit overexposed. Could use some adjustment in the brightness/contrast area to allow the people, objects and color stand out more. The bright light coming in the window is a little too bright and distracting, but maybe the adjustments would fix that some...or could crop it out. This picture really shows a lot of activity and you portrayed it well. I love your title, even though it's a little long. I really like this picture, but, although humans are mammals, I have a hard time fitting them into fauna. Picture-wise, it scores high, in my opinion.
Original subject matter. I think you would have been better served to put more focus (by this I don''t mean in-focus, i love the movement) on the people and less on the architecture.
Hope you don't get too harshly treated on the 'not fauna' front - though you're risking it! Nice shot - no criticisms (well, maybe it could have been busier to fit the title?)
Creative take on this subject. I hope you do well, this is a beautiful shot. One of those things on my list of pictures I'd like to take someday. The thing that really makes it extraordinary is the figure stading still towards the center of the image. I also like the title you chose - I hope people will accept people as "fauna" and rate this for the great shot that it is. 10
Really cool shot, but the title isn't too good (too long). What is really interesting about this shot is the guy in the middle who is perfectly still with the others around him that are moving. Like to know the apprature and shutter speed you used because the lighting is perfect. 8.
The photo itself is interesting, a bit too much light in the center but the mostion of the people is really well captured. As far as the theme, I'm gonna have to say a big "nope" from this corner!
