City of Bath. Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro and Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G ED lens.

Few graffiti artists in this town are equipped with apparatus enabling safe descent from high points and generating 'how did they do that?' gasps from viewers who see their efforts. Graffiti artists are largely solitary by nature, so there is little chance that they will form a club to share the cost of mountaineering stuff. In any case, they would be worried that any association could be infiltrated by the Secret Service. So they use whatever platforms happen to be available, as shown here, which can make their messages necessarily brief.

Seend needs a by-pass but the land slopes away dramatically to the south and thus options are limited. Anyway, it would only have the effect of inflating already eye-watering property prices in the village. Nikon D700 + AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D lens. Cropped quite a lot.

Nikon D40 + 18-70mm lens. Carrying this combination is a lot easier than, say, a Nikon D700 and a 28-105mm lens.

City of Bath; Nikon D300s + Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens.

Early October; a warm sunny afternoon. A Wednesday, just before a quarter past three. This part of Avebury is not a spot where visitors linger; there's not much to see here. There's something about the stillness, the warmth, the quietness. Something that stirs memories from way back, not vivid, more abstract. Perhaps a melange of recollections. The bus driver has switched his engine off. I don't know how long he stops here before restarting his journey, but it could be a long-ish stop. So it's all quiet and there is a new memory being made which I experience every time I look at this picture. Canon EOS 30D + Canon EF 35-135mm f/4 - 5.6 lens. Lightroom 6.

This bus has ended up a long way from Oxford Street. Seen in Friday Street, North Wiltshire, and clearly part of an extensive collection of PSVs. 'The Woman in White' was Andrew Lloyd Webber's shortest running West End production, from September 2004 until February 2006. The Routemaster buses were taken out of service by then Mayor of London Ken Livingstone, and the 159 from Marble Arch to Streatham was the last service the Routemasters provided, other than the 'Heritage' routes for the tourists. The last day for the Routemaster on 159 was 9th December, 2005. To find one in the depths of Wiltshire is something of a surprise.

Dusk - the rush hour. Winter closing in. Nikon D700 + Tamron AF 70-210mm f/2.8 SP LD lens.

You wait all day for a bus ...

Canon EOS 40D + Chinon 55mm f/1.4 lens + short extension tube.

What a clamour, what a fuss, Getting on and off the bus.

Salisbury, Wilts. Canon PowerShot SX120 IS.

Photographed with a Canon EOS 30D and an M42 thread Sigma 80-200mm zoom f/4.5-5.6 attached with an adapter. This lens was launched in 1985. It came in Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Minolta, Praktica B, Praktica screw (M42), Yashica/Contax, Konica, Fuji, and Pentax/Ricoh P (KPR) mounts. It took 52mm filters; was multi-coated; and made in Japan. It was priced at £79.95 or you could buy a special twin pack that also included the companion Sigma 35-70mm f/2.8-4.5 at a special price of £130. 'Camera Weekly' magazine reviewed the two lenses on 8 March, 1986, in a 'Quality on a Budget' feature. They remarked, 'the lenses will satisfy the expectations of even the enthusiast' and were 'quite up to all but the most demanding usage'. You can buy this lens on eBay for 99p; several have changed hands at that sum.
