Attention in the subjects of a photograph is a really interesting concept. I am also grateful to have the link to Anil's photos. I shall revisit and revisit: great project!Lucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07642126053527835870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-43534047925590098942010-04-12T11:52:40.748+02:002010-04-12T11:52:40.748+02:00love that last shot. and happy you've returned...love that last shot. and happy you've returned to normal font (size)Fire Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518190677399410354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-7138835974587737902010-04-12T01:16:38.990+02:002010-04-12T01:16:38.990+02:00I love the way the cat and baby are staring right ...I love the way the cat and baby are staring right into the lens: "What are you doing?"

Anil's series of photos of humans reading on trains really is a brilliant example of the genre. I like what you've captured here, especially with the animals, who so aptly act as the best of supporting characters!marja-leenahttp://www.marja-leena-rathje.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-16470026533206931972010-04-11T21:12:52.646+02:002010-04-11T21:12:52.646+02:00I used to photograph people on the trains in Bosto...I used to photograph people on the trains in Boston, surreptitiously. Lovely to get them looking away, engrossed, unselfconscious. Which is why animals and children are easier, they are just looking back, not looking at you looking at them looking at you.Zhoenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515663141425057088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-51927129679056342292010-04-11T19:24:54.461+02:002010-04-11T19:24:54.461+02:00Thank you, Lucy, for helping push the idea along, ...Thank you, Lucy, for helping push the idea along, and so convincingly too. <br /><br />Like you said, when I began with the project over three years ago, it was the faces in repose, often in very crowded trains that struck me as I made my way to work and back.<br /><br />There's so much that books evoke from time gone by that even in the silences between the reader and the the photographer an unspoken communication results.<br /><br />It would be wonderful, as well as revealing of human choices in their public setting to see faces in repose in the context of the titles in their hands from around the world.<br /><br />The last picture: The gaze of the cat in the human setting is striking. Animals are alert to the mundane of human contexts.<br /><br />Thank you once again.Anil Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02422187314611747278noreply@blogger.com
