Critique:
I think this is a nice photo because of the nice
composition. The seats, windows, and rails serve as
leading lines leading to the woman sitting at the
back. I also really like the lighting, I'm sure it was
taken using a fast shutter speed because of all of the
light coming in through the windows. There is also
much contrast between the blacks and the whites, a
must for most black and white photos.

Good- I would also mention that the woman is placed on the top thirds line leading to a good dynamic composition.

Shutter speed isn't that relevant here, but it was probably shot with a SLOW shutter speed beacause of the glare captured on the chrome of the seats.

Depth of field is very relevant here. Mention that there is a long depth of field because the foreground seats and the background are both in focus.
