I think walkers work was and is really interesting. The whole concept of capturing people’s faces on trains was really a perfect way to show the everyday life emotions one goes through. Since the first day of operations on the subway I think that was what they wanted to capture. What people’s feelings and expressions were towards the subway. Walker though the train was the perfect place to do his job. I know it must have been hard which photos to pick out of 600. His best ones were then polished 89 pictures. Those pictures really do tell stories, they can be true or false but there expression can tell you something about them. In my opinion I don’t think that would work as well now in present day. The trains are much crowded now then it ever was back in the days. Overal walker captured the moments on the subway beautifully and its nice to see how similar and yet so different the passengers are today. Everyone just has something to say but there face will be doing all the talking.
