BUSWORLD PHOTOGRAPHY

I AM CHRISTOPHER LEACH THE ARTIST. I started this blog so that I can share with everyone my vast collection of transport photographs showing a personal and nostalgic view of the industry with images that span some 45 years taking in the U.K and some of Europe. I have no darkroom and so rather than being the perfectionist after tidying them up I upload the images warts and all, and even those that won't scan squarely or are scratched. In a way it adds age and character. You are all free to download these for your personal use but please remember I still own them and you are not just free to use them without prior permission for any knd of publishing. Click on images to enlarge them and if you want to see more leave your comments or visit my website for the mother-site with galleries including those Buses & Girls: PICTUREWORLD

My First Camera: Leicester


My first camera an Ilford Sporty was not very good and as one used to pick the wrong time of year to take photos many of the images are not really worth using. However this blog scans my whole history and I want to include as much as I can. What prompted me to add this image of a Trent Leyland Leopard taken late in 1966 was a hurried visit to the city in the dark, but it was over twenty years since I last visited there for work so it is worth some kind of celebration.
