I just have one question. Why do the texture the seat covers? :) They haven't changed since I rode in one when I was a child. Nice way to capture childhood. I can't believe they actually let you in there. My bus driver was strict.

This is a really good picture. The windows just lead me through the photo. And the B&W makes it seem like just an old memory. 8.

Interesting photo, and unusual to be taken from inside a bus with the windows framing the exterior part. Slightly too dark inside for me, but I imagine it would have been too overexposed outside if it had been adjusted for inside?

interesting view point. I ight have positioned the other bus a little differently in the windows, but that's me. I like the use of monochromse here. The texture on the seat is a nice touch too. - 6

I never rode a bus to school so I am trying to read this photo just for it's merits as a photo and this is what I see......nice clear shot, The back of the seat is very detailed and the darkness at the bottom of the photo adds to the imagination of the subject, the B&W transitions the photo to invoke feelings of childhood memory in neither a positive or negative way. For me it just IS. The view through the window remains clear and creates a schoolyard atmosphere. There are no distracting highlights or shadows. The ROT is set up wonderfully. There is still something not completely satisfying about this photo and I don't think it has much to do with you as the photographer. Some improvements, (strictly subjective as a viewer) .......It might have been better if the background Bus was parked much closer, I'm not totally thrilled with the background content through the windows. =8 syamjonimi ;'-D

The use of B&W is great in this photo. Gives it a feeling of the past and thinking back to it. Interesting composition too. Good job. TG
