the grain is a little too out of control, but the right idea. very nicely observed, ashame that it didn't go higher. it really nailed the challenge, imho. better luck next time, keep it up!

Not sure if I like the mood with the use of grain?

Nice capture. Speaks to the subject well and I like the choice of B/W and grain.

Very nice, I like the use of grain and B&W, really give it that 'mundane activity' look.

I think you OD'd on the "film grain," but it's still a good shot. (I'm surprised no one on board hit you for taking his or her picture ΓΆ€” 8-D.)

B/W really works well for this, also like soft focus and composition

A little grainy and perspective seems a bit confined

Great shot! Would have liked to seen this with less noise.

Nice... Wish i lived in a city with so much life and confusion ;) like the shot!

Great shot. It really personifies the stereotype of city living. The composition and b&w really work well.

This is perfect for the challenge, and I love the grittiness of the shot. 8.

the graininess captures the feel of a subway car well. I sense all four lives.

Composition is ok. The choice of subject matter is ok. The image quality is ok. Has potential of being really creative. - 5

I liked the use of grain on this one.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the black and white, and the graininess is ok as well. Perhaps a more contrasty / dynamic image would be good - curves would have helped deal with the bright lights if doing this. I do like the framing and composition (particularly the nearest person). Good work.

i like how the photo has a sort of texture

Now this is the city feeling I remember. Thanks for the good memories. The only thing missing is the strange old man that used to ramble odd things. Good photo.

I love the composition. I suspect some people might not like the image grain so much.

A very strong potrayal of city life. Good use of grain too.
