But one helluva cool shot nevertheless....GOOOOOOD MORNING BY THE WAY!!!! 6 am and im at work...woohoooo....sigh....

cool reading all the details... hard to make out some of it... upper crusty family bakers?... official nod... photographer wanted? :D

Cool photo, I like the angle(or I suppose I should say "POV"). What is that back there...a big bus? I like the colors. -Jeff :-)

a double decker bus!!! yes, i do believe so! cool :]

lol...cool. Thanks cynlee. I thought so, but wasn't sure...:-) I thought it was maybe a flying bus.

Ah...London as it really is...good buzz Pascale, think that should be spelled Kensington :) like it lots;)

Nice reflections you captured there and great timing :) That is one of our much beloved London Routemaster buses soon to be gone :( They have been in service for more than 50yrs most of them but modern 21stC man cannot ride on a bus without fallng out of back so they have to be replaced with new buses that have doors on that close. :(

cooool shot, would have been better if there wasn't paper in the window, but the composition and everything else can't be criticised. The picture in the shop below though does look very good as well. WHoops I notice that zacko has already mentioned the paper. Anyways, fantastic.

Cool Reflection...I have walked the South Kensington Streets (not for Trade)... and it brings back Memories :]

Ah yes! That piece of paper was quite annoying indeed but nothing I could do about it unfortunately especially since the shop was closed! Cyn, U're not going to believe this, but I didn't even notice what that paper says!! And I can't believe I didn't see it!!! I was so focused on my shot! Man, I have to go back there!! O_o Jimbo, thx for the spelling!! Wasn't sure! Rich, I can't believe they're planning to replace these fabulous buses!! They're part of the London scenery! They can NOT do that!!! Thx a bunch guys for ur feedback on this one!! :)

holds up a picket sign to keep the old buses!!! grrr
that's a big part of London fascination for us tourists! ...although i don't relish falling out the back of the bus :/

LOL!!! Well, I never saw that happening but again I don't live in London so! And yes, those buses ARE England!!! And I believe u English people should go out there and protest against the slaughter of ur old beautiful red buses!! And I mean it!

the double deckers happen all over the UK...but i guess London has made them proud;)....understand they are to be auctioned off...got any bread anyone?

They are auctioning them if anyone wants one. They are turning up in the oddest of places - I was in Helsinki last year and some were there doing tours of the city. They are a marvelous piece of engineering - specially designed for London streets. Reliability is second to none and completely unmatched by the newer buses which have a far worse breakdown record. They will still be able to be seen and photographed at the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden

I think I'm gonna go to London VERY soon and take as many shots of the buses as I can!! Yep!

i luv the easels and the paintings! cool!

Pascale...You live in England? Are you not French? If so does that make you a French-English?

No Jeff, it makes me a French-French! ;) I just live in England but was born and raised in France, my mother tongue and culture being French! ;) Hehe!

French-French? Cool...I bet you can cook some good gourmet food being so French. Thanks for the clarification, and I admire your English. :-)

:D Thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx! As for cooking, hehe, no probs! My bf is also a Headchef and that's pretty cool too! Yummy! ;)

Sound cool indeed. I have no experience w/French cooking but I can cook some good Mexican food, and I'm not even Mexican. :-)

Oh! But...we can cook anything dear! I wasn't talking about French food especially here! We actually VERY rarely eat French food! Since the French are big meat eaters, there's not much for me there! I definitely prefer Indian food! ;)
