Description

An African-American man stands on a train platform looking to the left, away from the viewer, as a train moves behind him. The man wears a yellow cap, orange long-sleeve shirt, and khaki pants, with a backpack slung over his shoulder. He stands on yellow tactile paving that indicates the edge of the platform. The train is in motion and blurred, creating a dynamic background with horizontal lines. Light suggests it is daytime, with the man casting a shadow on the train behind him. The image is shot at eye level.
