The Traveller

Superb composition. Powerful and telling of an unknown story. Caught in the perfect moment, and as I said, the number contribute greatly to balance this great photograph, almost acquiring the same importance as the strong gaze of the passenger, appearing to confront you (the photographer with the camera) but not in a challenging way, but rather trying to tell you his story. His non-passive position conveys that (at least to me), making this such a great image, one that you can "read" so many things into it. And your choice of B&W for enhancing the dramatic situation is superb. I very much enjoy looking at your image. When one image captures the attention of a viewer is a feat in itself, when there are literally billions of images uploaded everyday. Congratulations. DG
