Buses

Posted by Andrew Gould (Sydney, Australia) on 25 June 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

Buses everywhere, but how to get a new angle (perhaps literally) on this theme? After deleting many bus photos over the last few months, I came up with this.

Taken in Sydney on the 19th of June 2008

Hej Andrew. This is really good! Great composition and a nice bus ;-) Compliments for your idea of allowing a second 'half-bus' in the picture. Makes it way more lively.

By the way: did you realize that you made it into the Hot 100 Photoblogs at Photoblogs.org?

@Shun: Thanks for your comment on the photo, Mirko, and, no -- I had no idea that I was on that list, so thanks for alerting me to it.

As I write this, I'm number 56. Dathro of aminus3 is 34, and you're in there at 99. Not bad when this is out of 30,629 listed blogs.

I like this one! I can almost imagine the driver's face of the back bus as he stares at the Hulk. Congrats on the listing at Photoblogs!

hey andrew! i think the composition and the framing really work here -- buses are not easy things to capture. love the diagonal split planes of light and shadow. great shot! tell me -- are the aussies upset that 'bana' in not in the sequel? ;)

@dj.tigersprout: Thanks for the feedback. As far as the movie's concerned, I'm afraid I can't answer that as I'm not up on the details.
