Portrait of a bus driver Photo

Photographer’s Note

Old buses of Malda are pride to their owners and they are personally decorated.

Outside there was a minor accident better visible on this shot.

Outside view of this beautiful Ford Thames.

Nice perspective Kari, I like the shot from this side. Its interesting with two views. One in the mirror and another in front

Hi Kari, as a vain person I can commiserate with this fellow absolutely hating that you shot his bald patch :) But anyway, this is a unique POV, not just of the driver, the great reflection in the rear-view mirror, but of the streets outside. It is good and clear and you;ve done well with the available light. TFS, Lisa.

Clever! Very clever portrait. Th exposure is great, showing the details beyond the windshield. You could also have kept the 24mm format cropping a bit of the white top. But it's nice the way it is.

Terve Kari,
I like it, an unusual way to present a portrait, we can also see people there do not solely rely on their driving skills when they get to the steering wheel...
Have a nice day JY

Nice idea and post, I like this jump in the years in order to rediscover this bus and your trip in Malta. The photo is beautiful and clever with the man reflected in the small mirror. Well done, Kari, compliments.
Best wishes for a beautiful first of May
Ciao
Vinicio
