Being ignored must really suck sometimes... Not only do i find this image an interesting social commentary, to be taken anyway you see fit, i also like it for it's composition... The man's legs, the passenger's arm, and the door curve I find provide interesting repeating elements...of course that is just me and soon not to be dpc.

very clever! nice titling and use of what's in the frame! i'm taken aback in wonder at your cleverness - inspired! there sn't much to criticise about this. i guess due to the circumstances of the photo - right time, right place - you were probably limited with what you could do, but i think the man at the back would ideally be a bit more of a prominent feature in the shot. but in order to fit it in, not a lot you could do... 7.
6 - Good. More refined crop possibly, but difficult given the incorporation of the sign. Possibly could have manipulated the 'edges' more in advanced, but still a good candid framing for basic. Possibly a b&w/toning effect could have given this an extra edge, who knows.
when i see the IFC advertisment coupled with the fact of homelessness, wether intentional or just fourtunent, it strikes an alarming realization. Really a shame the passenger isn't doing something a bit more interesting or has their elbow more forward giving us another frame.
That is a NYC classic! The juxtaposition is perfectly blinking funny! Great work. Good to see you carrying the box and lens around in order to catch the dire straits of daily NYC life!
