Composition (Content)
Near perfect! I am drawn to the clear crisp pillar and sign as well as the nice reflections in the tile flooring. The colors are warm and inviting in contrast to the cool color of the subject moving in the middle of the frame. This gives me a feeling that even in the comfort of our surroundings life is busily passing us by.
Background
Even though this is at a train station, the colors and sharpness of the background make this an inviting place to be. Your use of verticals and horizontals with the building and sign, help to frame the subject well.
Camera Work (Technical)
Being that this was not a staged shot and you are working within an active area of the train station, I commend you on your ability to capture this shot. As others mention, it's a shame that both legs are not visible, but I feel that in the bigger scope of the picture, that is not as important as the feeling of hurrying through a train depot. That said, a slightly faster shutter speed may have added in both legs being visible.
Digital Processing (Technical)
Sharpening is good(Lines are crisp and clean)
Balance between light and dark is good. (Nice warm colors all the way to the cool colors of the traveler)
Compression is good(No noticeable compression artifacts)
My opinion
I really like this photo. I really gives me a sense of what it would be like darting through the station on my way to see family or friends. Your location for this shot is perfect with the warm colors and inviting doorway. Your subject although in a hurry, does not seem in a foul mood and that adds to the overall pleasant mood.

| Was this the best of the lot? Since it seems to have been taken with a purpose rather than at the spure of a moment, this picture should have been better. |

| I think this a fantastic shot. A littlr pity the person is one-legged. Great colours and focus. The composition is very good. High score from me. |

| The background is quite nice, however I find the blurred person a little too distracting. Perhaps combining a flash would have them frozen at the beginning and then blurred like they are moving away? |

| I like every bit except the person's missing leg. If you would have exposed their other leg as well it would be a 10. |
