Awarded the sacred red story-teller icon by Bruce_the_Robert, or so the story goes...
I was jammed standing room only onto a tram and just managed to extract camera from bag, held it up over the head of the man behind (who was African and wouldn't have liked having his picture taken). Thanks for all the comments etc.

The title makes it even better. Had this shot just been blurry or somethign I would have voted low and never come back. But there is something about this shot that goes beyond. The grainy effect and the motion blur work well together and make this a more compelling image. I dont mind the selective desat - but the border is all wrong IMO. No border or a thin black border would have been better IMO. The border you have though just looks to "pretty" for the image. Bumping up 1.
