    What a great set. I love them all, especially the back to back women (first one).

    #1 well there is just nowhere else to walk is there?
    I also like that little touch you captured of the bike sticking out of the snow.


    I also really like the ladies in #4 back to back with zero space between them.


    B.d. I'm still trying to do this on my trains but my shots are not usable. I keep looking at yours and salivating.

    I like your "vespa at the mechanic or snowed in" shots :)

    Thanks to you both - Liz and Damon....

    Part of the problem, Liz, maybe that 'shooting' on your subways is riskier, and you know it. Which may be holding you back - for good reason.mwink.gif

    Glad to hear you're not one of those demented scooter riders, BD.:D
    I like #3; the old guy's eyes next to the poster behind him.

    I ADORE this series bd. A-D-O-R-E! The first frame with the abandoned bike in the snow, the pedestrian and the wonderful contrast provided by the snow just sings. I always love your T shots but the look on the man in #3 puts me in a Russian spy movie. What a face.

    BD - is this the D-line?

    Some day I hope to find out why, coming from downtown, there are four Riverside trains to every one Cleveland Circle. :cry

    It's the C line. I go St. Mary's to Park on the Green "C," and then Park to Harvard Square on the Red Line; I call the route the "V" line. It's a wonderful example of the MBTA's inane system - all spokes; no wheel. ne_nau.gif

    Oh, St. Mary's - I'm on that line. I always thought it was the D line. ha ha, you're right, I just looked on the map. I oughta know, it rumbles past my window every ten minutes (but never out-goingrolleyes1.gif)

    Yup - I know that route well. :D
