The trolley in the background and the crossover in the foreground are transit elements and complement the bus being featured. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doppelkupplung Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 3 hours ago, Danthetransitfan8074 said: Well um, it says here on one of the guidelines here that the vehicle is the main focus and must be the majority of the photograph. Vehicle should occupy the majority of the frame, be centered in the photo, and be the main focus. Look, I didn’t want to start another argument as there was just one here okay? Without going too off topic, I don't think those are super rigid rules. Like how many times are we going to look at the same style photo over and over again? The thread loses any level of creativity. If we all followed that rule to a t, this thread would be blander than bland dude. I don't want to sound like a broken record, and I'm not at all bashing anyone's photos, its just that adding some creative elements is never a bad thing. If the post is not appropriate, it'll get called out. Otherwise there's no need to be afraid of spicing things up. Including the post that sparked this discussion, here are some examples: This second one is a particularly good example: Just some notable examples; plenty more. Okay, kind of off topic now, but last thing. Check their photo of the week/screener's choice for some inspiration and also as to what I'm rambling on about: https://railpictures.net/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Less arguing more photo submissions. Post whatever photo if it doesn't go up it means you didn't win or it meet standards. Simple as that. Get over yourselves. No need to post all this for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the Horn Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 As part of a rather large turnover of the MTA bus fleet in 2019, the 2010 Novabus LFSA's that served the M15 Select Bus Service since its inception are being displaced back into local service. The first two photos are of 1244, which has been transferred to Tuskegee Airmen Depot and is seen running southbound on Lexington Avenue as an M101 to 6th Street in the East Village. The third photo is of the replacements for the 2010 LFSAs; 2019 XD60s from New Flyer. 6144 is seen here heading south on Pearl Street to South Ferry. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
