Oh dear, another flattering photo of myself. The look on my face is probably because I was expecting him to be taking a photo, however I spotted Gary as the bus got closer to the bus stop but couldn't see the camera so assumed that I wasn't getting snapped. Could do with a haircut tbh, probably a more trendy style.

Sorry I didn't say hi Gary, I couldn't bring myself to say hi.

No worries Jimmi. I tend to go unnoticed when I take photos.

When I take photos of drivers I know, I say oh here's a photo of you. And they go when did you take that, I didn't see you.

*Ninja Vanish*

I'm some where on that bus.

Two young lads with two female admirers at cling on corner at about 1.30 this afternoon. One lad was taking photos on an ipad. Also three old guys in their 50s taking photos.

Think South Tyne Lad was sat at the front of 9098 downstairs, in the seats closest to the door, on the 1100 X9 off Middlesbrough.

This has got to be a rare occurrence - certainly rarer than a branded bus appearing on another branded route. Maybe a rare occurrence thread should be created to encapsulate moments like this??

Oh aye, when I past about 10 to 2, it was full, could not get past them the pavement was so full.  Was that Ryan and his mate with the two female admirers I wonder.  

I used to work with some people who were at this fancy awards do the other night.
They shared this album and I saw the photo in question. Got a surprise at one of the other photos though!

I bet you did, and I can guess the photo as well.

It's like the James Bond audition, rejection bin

Didn't report it then cos it wouldn't let me login so I'll mention it now...

I saw a few at Eldon on Saturday at around 2:10, saw one guy with a camera eating a pizza. Anyone on here?

Now that is what I call multi-tasking!

I should've mentioned that he had his camera hanging over his neck!

Some guy taking a picture of the 97 whilst I was driving through whickham. I should have been more focused on the road, though!

I saw Bazza at DBS, a few months back, trying to photograph a solo on the Sapphire 22 whist munching on a big sub of some sort. He was managing neither particularly successfully!

I must admit, on at least one occasion I have been eating chips from a chip shop and have seen something I want to photograph and have ended up with the portion of chips being placed under one arm then have had to get the camera out of my bag then hold it in the other hand to take the photo, some mixed results have been achieved!

Young lad taking photos on his phone in Eldon Square on here at around 09:30. Anyone on here?

Getting caught taking pictures on your phone defeats the purpose of even using a phone in the first place, imo. I only ever take pictures when I know nobody is going to be able to notice on my phone.
My photography could be a lot better if I actually used a camera, but I know quite a lot of drivers don't like it from speaking to them, so I avoid getting caught or from using angles which clearly show drivers who don't like the idea.

You could always blur out their faces? Plenty of software/websites out there that allows you to edit photos in such a way. That's what I do if a driver tells me he doesn't want his face plastered on the Internet.

I always angle it so can't see faces, here's an example
