The Somnambulist


I went to fun city today to meet my friend Stan and see two photographic exhibits - one in a gallery, and one at the International Center of Photography.  We took a subway to get from uptown to downtown.  I love riding the subway, because I love people watching.  I was taken by this woman sitting across from me - she appeared to be in a trance, rather than sleeping.  She had her earphones plugged into her iPad, which you can't see.  But the main thing was, she seemed so peaceful and calm.  I think that's why I wanted to photograph her - because of that sense of calm, in the midst of a noisy, screeching subway ride.
