Love the composition here. The out of focus figure adds motion, always present in subways. Perfect border!

Hi Thilo,
When I view this image a few things come to mind.
Industrial, cramped, hurried, and to quote Hugo, tension is a big part as well. I feel that all of these descriptions are brought about by your close crop and use of stark B&W to portray the scene. The sense of being on a commuter subway is very heightened by using these techniques.
I'm not sure if changing the ratio of the two main figures would really make much difference to the image. Possibly if the in focus scene was a little larger, it might help, but I can't see cropping the out of focus person out of the image any more than he is.

I like the interplay between the foreground and background, having the person in front out of fucus effectively makes our attention go to the window. it is a picture within a picture.

I like the idea here but I feel a little more focus on the foreground person, making it more identifiable as watching the person in the other car, would have been great.

Best,
Dave

Wow! Ships passing in the night, with a contemporary twist.

I, on the other hand, like the dominance of the blurry figure because it focuses the eye on the subject. It also adds a certain distance and depth, remoteness and estrangement you might say, and heightens the tension.

The thick horizontal bar is another very important element in creating this tenuous balance. Really, I wouldn't change a thing.

Hi Thilo, I haven't used this for a long time, but it's the "tension" in the composition and in the use of DoF that makes this image tick.

Excellent choice of focus plane, leaving the figure in your compartment recognisable, but reducing his /her present to allow the viewer to focus on the figure in the other compartment. Great atmosphere, and the high contrast assists in building the mood and atmosphere.

Looking closer at the composition, the thought crosses my mind to reduce the area of the blurred figure in your compartment, as it takes up almost half the image. Besides, something tells me a portrait format would make the narrative in this photo a tad stronger - not sure why, just a gut feeling.

Either way, I think this is an impressive shot, very well captured, and the tension is almost tangible, to use an old euphemism...:)

Cheers,

Hugo
