Another brilliant, timeless shot! Lovely tonal range, and it almost seems if the sole person in the foreground is Darth Vader who's wandering around stealthily. Excellent!

I would expect more people milling around during a morning rush hour. Just how early was this? Or, how close to September 11?

I like this picture. At first the motion blur on the man bothered me, but now even that intrigues me for some reason--don't know why. Anyway, picture all around, Bob.

This is beautifully composed and executed.

Evocative! I sort of fell into the shot. It took me away. I like that in a photograph.

Olaf is right about the stealthy figure. It adds an interesting twist to the building photo. Also, the usage of the shift is great. I'm not so certain about the role of the dark wall that lines the left of the picture, though.
