Commuting lives photo project. Commuting to work each day can be a challenging experience and daily I meet hundreds of people, pledged at the same times and same trains.
It's interesting to distinguish how each of us spends these moments differently during the travel: there's who sleeps recovering energy, who reads a book, who is looking forward to the arrival, who divulges his or her feelings in front of a friend but above all, and here it is clear the cultural change occurred in recent years, there's who prefers alienating from it all using their smartphone.
The photograpy raises the curiosity that each of us possesses to a higher level, making the photographer able to analyse the subject even before shooting.
I have spent many of these trips between Monza and Milan to better understand these elements of humanity among the passengers: facial and body expressions, interactions between people, style and good or bad habits.

Both in their own worlds..... the girl is commuting on her own, probably from a high priced private school.
An ordinary moment underground, where time passes between stations and faces glow quietly in artificial light.
Una discretta fetta degli studenti non abita vicino alle sedi universitarie: fa parte dell'esercito dei pendolari.
Ossia ha diritto a ritardi, soppressioni di treni, sporcizia e sovraffollamento.
Tutti i giorni, per buona parte dell'anno.

Dear Mom,
Alright, I've been bored and uninspired. But my daily commute has much to offer in terms of stimulation and a recording of the times. Here's what's going on at 7:55 in the morning, on the Larkspur to SF Ferry terminal shuttle. Yes there are Blackberries and Iphones, there are laptops, there is conventional reading, and coffee, and..... well....... there is always the tried and true anti-establishment-post-early-rising-nap,catlike, in the morning sunshine. I'm all for that.
and every photo should be viewed large, shouldn't it?

Afternoon traffic in Portland slowing to its predictable crawl. This is part of SW & NW Portland looking from the West Hills past PSU and the Pearl District to the Fremont bridge.
Further in the distance are North Portland and Vancouver, Wa. The mountains are the Cascade Foothills near Mt. St. Helens.
The underground Delhi metro rail was running fast. The tired bums of hard working commuters were shaking like jelly. The image got blurred. Sorry.

Detail of my commuting from the very first day I began working in Montgomery County to present (as of the date of upload). This shows transit in cooler colors and car travel in warmer colors.
By and large transit has been a longer trip (not least because I still need a car for part of it), but quite reliable and pleasant. Whereas driving the whole way has the capability of being faster (particularly in the morning) but can be maddening in the evenings.
A few specific events...
I was walking to/from Dupont North up until about Oct/Nov 2012, when the south escalators reopened & cut about 5 min off my walk. I later began using Metro Center in the AM, cutting an additional 5 min walk but at the cost of an extra couple minutes on Metro... I mostly switched just to vary my walk up a bit; I liked seeing all the construction each day.
There were two days in 2012 when I tried 100% to my job on the outskirts of Gaithersburg... as you can see from their status as clear outliers: that did not work well. The 56 bus was horrible... it meanders so much, and on that second day I missed it by a few seconds -- had to wait 30 minutes for the next one.
Over Summer 2013 I began testing out I-395 as a driving option... it's worked pretty well in both AM and PM, cutting my DC car time significantly but increasing my VA car time slightly. One perk is I don't have to deal with the K Street slalom, and I also get lovely skyline views along the Potomac.
In the last few days -- on the far-right of the chart -- I switched to a different office which I can travel to entirely by transit... this is why the last few data points which are 100% transit.
Number of people commuting to major city from every commune is divided by number of people working in that commune and that ratio is presented on the maps.
Unfortunately, Polish Statistical Office provides data of working population only for companies and institutions that employ more than 9 people so the real ratio might be different. This is a fair approximation though.
