Busworld Photography: Raining Cats and Dogs: Either we're in a Magritte or it's just Belgium

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

Raining Cats and Dogs: Either we're in a Magritte or it's just Belgium

I went with some friends on a week-end coach trip to Amsterdam and on the way back we stopped in Bruges (Brugge). We had about two hours there and it rained heavily for most of the two hours . The Belgian gentleman isn't being arrested for driving a Taunus the police wanted to know why he wanted to take home some of the decorative iron chain put there to look old and to stop people parking on the verge. There seemed to be more visiting coaches from the UK than local buses on the streets.
