 From someone who spent a good deal of time on a commuter train for a  
number of years; you've managed to capture the moods which I  
certainly felt on many a ride. The shadow noise on the first image  
put me off a bit. I like the photograph a lot - but the blotches on  
the young man's face need some work.

Fond regards,
George
