175 Photos on the Bus

To get going I decided to take 175 photos through the window on the bus to Didsbury. At first I was annoyed because it was raining and all the windows were steamed up from the condensation. But after a couple of pictures I decided I really liked the abstract feel, and the distorted view. I keeps wiping the window with my sleeve and this left really interesting marks. It was a weird day actually because it was pouring it down, but the sun was beaming through the clouds trying to get out. This gave some really nice glares in some of the photos, and depending on where the bus was heading, the light moves around the photos from one side to another. Some even shine from the floot where the sun has reflected off the wet cars and puddles in the road. Here are a selection of the strongest photos. I found that the more the windows were steamed up and the light was glaring, the better they look. I also like how I can just about tell where abouts each were taken on the journet and in some you can see people standing waiting for their bus'.
