It's a positively ordinary place.
It's a positively extraordinary portrait thereof.
While defying concise explication of meaning, this photograph is marvelous in ambience and thematic elements. (Plus you're always really good at giving your shots evocative titles. Go you.)
Awesome job--but then I expect no less.

With a head in the future and a heart veiled by faces...
chaos and order unite in catalysis.
The quantum, the formless
Rearraging equilibrium.
Ironically, this wasn't trying to be anything special...my friend called me, and I told her I'd take a shot of where I was standing. But you know, there's an awful lot of life that's extraordinary, when you take a second look at it. I'm glad you like the title...I renamed it from "The Transbay Terminal" after uploading it, then realized how boring that title was.
As for that explicated meaning, I can only say what I was feeling at the time...I was feeling awe toward this grand structure, imagining it at its peak...but also loneliness and desolation, just a little bit. It was a gigantic station, with nobody around. And if the shot evoked anything like that, then I'm happy.
Thanks, Miles.
