Commuters, Victoria Terminus, Mumbai, India, 2008

Mumbai was once known as the western gateway to India. Today its population of 13 million makes it India's largest city, as well as its commercial center. The Victoria Terminus, known now as Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, stands at its heart. My camera’s image stabilization feature allowed me to make this shot hand-held at one-fifth of a second and still hold most detail. The only exception is the woman who is moving rapidly towards us at left. Her burst of energy contrasts to the relaxed, crossed-hands posture of the two people at right.
