Hope it wasn't a tour bus! What an awful part of anyone's vacation!

Oh poor~ Broken Tyre?
Would it be better if the photo is not divided into 50% sky 50% ground?

This subject has greater potential than this. I would've like to see closeups of the pssengers, the driver or tow truck driver, or a more interesting angle featuring the people , the vehicles and the road.

I find this very humorous, of course, I wasn't a passenger. :-)

Moving closer might have given this some more ummph. The light blues are kind of overwhelming. But I would have had to take a photograph of this too. I played with cropping and hue/saturation in photoshop with this one. It seems to work best for me croped much closer to the action.

what a drag for those people!

new extreme sport... off road bussing?
06/12/2002 09:07:00 PM
That bus should have stayed (you know where...).
06/12/2002 05:08:00 PM
A tighter crop on the scene would have been helpful here.

This photo captures a situation that looks like it could of produced more interesting shots. From this photo it looks like there is a a tire stuck in the road, that would of been pretty cool to see.
06/11/2002 08:36:00 AM
Yes they are, wher's the road?
06/11/2002 07:23:00 AM
where on earth was this bus going???
06/11/2002 06:06:00 AM
Don't you just hate it when that happens? Were you on the bus? What a great opportunity for this week's challenge. I'm not really sure how I would've composed this differently, maybe ROT or move in closer, but the truck and bus being in the middle of the shot doesn't really appeal to me. Maybe a closeup from w/in that group of passengers with some of them in the shot and only part of the truck? Hard to say w/out being there.
06/10/2002 06:54:00 PM
hey is that a Unimog? This is a not a very dynamic shot. Move in closer, with a shot down the side of the pull vehicle?
06/10/2002 06:37:00 PM
It'd be a great photo op. if the all terain truck got stuck too!
06/10/2002 04:46:00 PM
Hope this wasn't your bus. It's one of those rare moments that we sometimes get. Overall, good exposure, nice sky, focus, etc. I'm thinking that a different angle might have worked a little better, but I do like the way it is framed between the rock formations.
06/10/2002 04:05:00 PM
that's too bad
06/10/2002 11:59:00 AM
Wow looks like a tour somewhere <?> would of been better a little closer but I get the idea here.
06/10/2002 11:25:00 AM
I believe the subject of your photo is the truck pulling out the bus. If that's the case then a closer shot would have been prefered.
06/10/2002 10:24:00 AM
Had the bus been on the road the photo would not have been possible.
06/10/2002 09:54:00 AM
This poor bus should have stayed 'on the road' :)
06/10/2002 05:13:00 AM
Wow, where is this? And what are they driving on? As for artisticness, I tihnk you're way too far out, there's a lot of dead space.
06/10/2002 01:09:00 AM
Where is this?
06/09/2002 09:08:00 PM
Get a little closer to the action -- the documentary-style shot just isn't exciting! This really could have worked well with a good close, tilted angle.
06/09/2002 08:46:00 PM
Oops. Did all those passengers finally get to their destination?
