Normally when I see a bus spotters in the bus station I slow down and smile and wave and get my picture taken honestly I don't see the harm in it and I've been on the other side of the fence before.  Yesterday I saw a spotter I didn't recognise so I smiled waved and slowed down as per usual however I don't think the poor lad was used to a nice bus driver as he looked rather uncomfortable. Are drivers normally b**st***s?  I rarely had problems back when I properly took up the hobby. Have things changed that much.  What's your opinion on drivers? 

Just FYI if you are on the forums.. It was Middlesbrough around 1700 yesterday 

This will have probably have been me as I was there at that time yesterday.

Didn't even notice that I got a wave I'm afraid.

I often look rather uncomfortable, I don't know why it just often seems like I do and a few people have said this to me.

I haven't really had any abuse from drivers when I have been out and about taking photos, think I have only had one give a handgesture which was a Belmont driver on the 6 in Bishop Auckland. I have had a few drivers cover their faces though. I have had a few good drivers who have given waves, thumbs up and have stayed at stops a bit longer for me to get photos.

So I don't know why I looked uncomfortable yesterday but it just seems to be a look I have on my face sometimes, I may have been thinking something at the time or possibly me being focused on my camera. Think I'll have to have a look through my photos from yesterday now.
