Third in a sequence of six photographs titled "The Human Condition." A man in a blazer stands on the platform of a subway station and looks directly out at the camera. He is surrounded by people waiting for the train, which is taking off in a blur behind him. The man appears to glow under the lights overhead, while his surroundings become more dim and covered in bright white spots, like stars.
