Oh, Piccadilly Line, aren't we posh!

Get more up faster than 'soon'! Have you got any that concentrate specifically on pretty much just the one person? I'm not saying this photo isn't a portrait (it is, I suppose), but I wanna see how you fair at what most people consider conventional portraits.

lol! Certainly hooked me in. :)

Hmm, why won't the lady sit down?

[Rhynome]

She's talking to the lady sitting next to the man in the hat.

One solution would be to ask the man in the hat to move up one, but that's very rarely done, as if you're reported to London Transport Police as having communicated in any way with a stranger on London Underground then the penalty is death.

At least she seems to be, other possibilities are that she's only on for a couple of stops, and so no need, and that the lady sitting down is just one of those creepy people who stares at you...

lol, so many stories can be made from this image, which is nice. :)

I like the expression on the lady in the far back.

The potrait of the young buy ( shot n.1 ) is based on his line of sight that cut the shot from left to right in a wonderful composition, very nice.

It could just be me but I'm having a hard time figuring out who is the focus in each picture :/

[daedicurus]

i'm not sure if these last few fall strictly into the realm of "portraits", nice compositions though... :)

I love the one with the green walls. It gives a nice focal point with the people.
