Busworld Photography: A great combination, but Buses and Girls don't mix

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

A great combination, but Buses and Girls don't mix

I should know I've photographed quite a number of these, but this combination rarely comes up because it's difficult being at the right place at the right time. However London is full of wonderful women and some of the numerous buses aren't so bad either like AEC Reliance BGY592T seen in the Eighties. By this time the days of the Reliance were numbered and most National Travel deliveries were of Leyland's compatable Leopard which soldiored on for a few more years. However Timpson's one of the NBC constituent fleets had been a keen AEC user and so these much missed coaches continued to be delivered to the Catford base.
