Roselyn: A regular Plymouth visitor for many a year

Much has changed in the Plymouth bus scene over the last few years but one gentle reminder of it's at one time many regular excursion visitors probably as much for locals shopping was Roselyn Coaches of Cornwall whose same familiar smart duo-green Van-Hool bodied Volvo was still turning up at Bretonside Bus Station last Summer and wearing that 237 AJB registration number I remember it aquired from the coach that did the run before it quite a few years ago. L.J & B.W Ede of Par had eight AEC Regents in 1986 in it's fleet of Seventeen and six of these came from the Government's Aere at Harwell in 1980. Also owned then was C571 HCV which might even be this beauty as they don't rust down there and especially older Van-Hool's. Taking pictures against the sun can be fun but with all that contrast and difficult shadows they work much better in black and white where one has more licence to be quite arty and creative. However I try to be different taking chances and this is how we have to see things too, and I like to think a strong lively composition made this sun-saturated scene work well.
