Random Picture of the Month 8 (July)

Hi All,
Sorry this one's late - just been busy doing all kinds of things.

Yes, hurrah, it is now July and the sun has finally decided to reintroduce itself to everyone, so I thought it would only be appropriate to use a picture which not only was a feature of the month, but had a lot of 'sun influence' in it as well!

The sun can be very useful for photography - if you use it in the right way. Generally if you have your back to it the buses come out all bright and shiny, but if the sun's behind the bus then the bus is merely a silhouette.

Look at all that blue sky.
KX59AEE blinded for route 268 at South Harrow Station.
Thanks, driver!

The 268 is a weird one an almost Central London route run from the very outskirts of the suburbs. Often, GR like to intermix the double and single deckers when they run out of buses but since the 268 is so far from the depot they try to keep the correct allocation on this route.
So, I decided to make use of this bus being on my local school route with a driver who I know and see what it would look like if it were to ever suddenly end up on the 268. I think it looks quite good myself, what with the '2' in 'O2' being subscript (put down) unlike any other blind I've ever seen.

Like I said though, it's doubtful this will ever happen, and we should just enjoy the sun whilst it lasts.

Also, for those going anywhere nice this summer, do have a good and restful time!

And finally, hopefully the next 'Random Picture Series' Post will be of the new B5L Hybrids with London Sovereign, so keep your eyes peeled!

LJN :)
