Peekaboo, Tattered Man, 6 Train

Don't try this at home. Definitely not the safest thing to be doing and I was only planning on taking that first shot. But when he started peeking at me from behind the pole then I had to take it.

Shooting people on the street is one thing, because if anything happens then you can get out of there quickly, but on a train is a whole different ballpark. Stuck in a metal tube with someone who doesn't like you is not the best feeling in the world.

If you're interested there's a great photographer, Matt Weber, who's been shooting in the subway (among other things) for the past few decades. His work is incredible and he has a very interesting and active blog going of his work.
