Passengers

what a hell she's looking to me?

that old women should be crazy..Uurhg, she's strange.

''la la la,(singing): Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!''

...and she has her foot on the feet....the youth of today!

You can't see the gun in her hand...

Yes, she does look scared actually! Maybe they are both international spies and this is actually their final meeting. Wonder who won?

June 2006. Homage to Edward Hopper's Nighthawks painting.

digiguy says:

Great shot. The tension between the 2 women at back is further enhanced by the presence of the third woman who is oblivious to them. But perhaps the crop should be slighly tigher on the left to exclude the yellow bell?

Nick_in_Atlanta says:

The windows make great frames. It looks like two framed photos next to each other. Also a great sense of compartmentalization and separateness even in close proximity. And it looks like someone is hiring bus drivers according to the advertisement!!

A fave of mine.

How does that Elton John song from the eighties go? We wanna get off, we wanna get off! :-D Cool photo! Great composition and color! (You realize I'm a Yank by the way I spell "color" - and "realize" - no?)

innpictime says:

I love this - I often have an urge to stand-up in a fairly crowded carriage and snatch a shot along it. Someone would probably call the police, though! Your excellent photo here has given me lots of ideas...
Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )

Corey.Snyder says:

I absolutely adore this photo - how many times have we all sat on buses and just drifted off into our own subconscious?? You can tell that each of these people are 'living' their lives right now in their heads...whether merely making mental shopping lists, planning job jumps, affairs or chores...I love it any which way (and the windows act as a perfect frame!)!
