Undivided Attention

The eyes ... averted under the hat, the newspaper as barrier to communication -- a perspective of life on the subway

Many thanks for your comments, Donna. Yes, this is such a common scene in the underground. What caught my eye was the way the man was looking at the other person's newspaper...his dress with the hat on....almost something like a film still.

One's attention is towards his own newspaper, while the other peeks at

someone else's. This difference is literally demarcated by the middle of

the carriage door. Also note the difference in the style of dress. Thank

you for your comments.

Extraordinary capture of ordinary life.  Onekdin jogajog nei, kemon acho?. Jayantidi

Many thanks, Jayantidi. Life has changed a lot recently with photography taking a backseat. I'll catch up with you all (Amalda, Sonali and you) soon. 

Samrat, this image reminds me of 'Neorealismo', of Italian movies. I too missed you for many months. I am sending you a mail.
