wil9402 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 A couple from the first Markham 2006 charter. A little over one month before YRT started. Was TTC's 2006 planned or did it just show up while you guys were on the charter and the driver agreed to pose it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kashiwazaki Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 GREAT shot! Wow, some very interesting scenery and bussesRoadside chalets, mountains, sweet! Apparently, this is the norm for Switzerland. Indeed. The bus is spotless and I LOVE how the scenery is reflected in the windows. It looks almost like it is painted on. These guys asked for this, so I dedicate to them my BEST transit photo they commented on "Reactions to transit enthusiasts"! Arigato, guys!

Downsview 108 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Was TTC's 2006 planned or did it just show up while you guys were on the charter and the driver agreed to pose it? It showed up by complete fluke! The driver of that bus was funny. We asked him if he could park the bus side by side with the Markham bus. Charter Member: Can you park the bus beside this other bus for a photo? Driver of TTC 2006: You actually take pictures of buses?! He was good enough to do it though!

Kashiwazaki Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 I guess this could be my best from this month of February, unless another cool shot may come out. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerbil Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 This would have to be mine http://www.transitfan.com/gallery/v/Gerbil...ageViewsIndex=1 !! Unless you can find better on my gallery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. McConnell Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 This one from today came out quite well. I was able to push the shutter at just the right moment... LADOT DASH 2009 El Dorado E-Z Rider II MAX (propane) on the DD "Downtown Discovery" route at 5th and Grand in downtown Los Angeles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerbil Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 These 2 turned out amazing! I love cloudy weather, and sundays! I don't know why the driver had the "Bonne Saint Jean" PR message on, that day is in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. David Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Here are some of my best photos. 1. STM 59-016, August, 2008. I had just begun my career as a transit fan, and I found this rare bird laying over at Metro Cote-Vertu. It was our last roll sign-equipped bus. 2. STM 60-013, December, 2008. After riding our last '90 MCI Classic on the 103, I ran over and got an amazing shot of it. This bus enjoyed a long and prosperous life at the STM's LaSalle division, and we even got to charter it last year. 3. STM 11-088, May, 2009. Rode this one on the 31, and took this amazing picture after I got off at Metro Henri-Bourassa. This bus was also involved in a charter last year. 4. STM 12-011, April, 2009. Saw it on Cote-Vertu, so I just had to get a pic. It's a siginficant bus for me because 12-011 is my birthdate (December 11th). 5. TTC 2302, December, 2009. I was fanning at York University on a sunny, but cold day during my winter break in Toronto, and I saw this shiny Fishbowl pull up. It had recently "graduated" from the TTC's Life Extension Program (LEP). 6. TTC 6705, December, 2009. I had heard that the TTC's '91 Orion Vs were on the endangered species list, so I really wanted to get pictures of at least one before they were all retired. I got my chance one day while it was on the 90A. 7. TTC 2245, February, 2009. While not the world's greatest photo, TTC 2245 is a siginificant bus for me because it was the subject of my first-ever transit video. I got to ride it again during a recent trip to Toronto.

Kashiwazaki Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Best photo, you say...? Well, here's mine, taken last Monday, while on Sion. I had to climb up a low wall for this.

Downsview 108 Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Fantastic time exposures guys! I might give something like that a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. DeLarge Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Well, if I had to pick only one..... Dan Little overblown there Dan, but light streaking is always cool.

Christ, don't quite remember to see such beautiful photo!!! Nice!! --------------- This isn't a bus, but I thought you guys would like, a GENUINE swiss Class 460.
