Who did you notice today?

I took these next set of pictures for a class project and would like to share them because I received such a interesting response from others. These portraits are of everyday city workers, the middle subway conductors, who control the doors and make announcements which are sometimes lively commentary to make our often painful commute a little more tolerable. I live in NYC so there are hundreds of trains running all day long and you often forget there are actual people driving the trains and opening and closing the doors.

Here are a few of the many subway workers that go unnoticed through out the day. Hey thanks for opening and closing the doors! I am one New Yorker who now takes notice and appreciates the service...
...so can you now please hold the doors open a little longer whenever you see me sprinting to catch the train? Although I can't complain much. I guess I could be standing on a cold foggy SF street waiting HOURS for a Muni train to grace me with their presence.
