I'm sorry, I just had to go stare at it some more and come back! I just want to look at every single person and see what they are doing! And look at that mob on the right just entering! It's almost Twilight-Zoney. All those people, yet every one of them is in thier own little world, oblivious to every other one! It just speaks tomes of the human condition! You'd think as a New Yorker this wouldn't hit me so hard! LOL! You must sell this print in art galleries all over the world! This is incredibly special! I hope you make a fortune on it! ~ Lonnit

This is absolutely a fantastic image! Consider submitting it for photo of the year somewhere! Truly outstanding! The people look surreal!! Their forming of a semicircle with the shadows coming out like rays of the sun - OMG!!!!!!! It's so perfect it seems staged - or maybe like it's some giant's little sculpture sitting on a shelf in his house with the light streaming in thru the window. It's the kind of shot that makes your imagination race!!!! I'm putting this one right up there as one of the very best submissions ever entered into the challenges! ~ Lonnit, awed!

Andy,
Ditto. I really like it. The people almost look like little automated creatures. Roberta

I love the sense of business and movement in this. Oh, and the light shafts are great too.

A classic, Andy. HOwever, I can't make up my mind Andy... which is the main focus here, the shadows or the light :-)
