Its the twilight I suppose,
I see that painting there,
A tune floats across - Piano Man he played,
Tip my hat, say hello and on my way I go.
Chanced upon him after stepping out from work, disappointed that I didn't get my perfect shot of a London Eye capsule against the setting sun. Later in the evening I chanced upon this software which allows one to add a retro feel to a shot. And this is the output which I wanted. Just the way I had visualised it.
The original is in the comments section. Which one you think is better?
Having now owned 455 for nearly a month various things have been done by myself and Neil. Debranding was the first job, the lower panels have now all been done as shown here, but due to the recent bad weather the upper vinyls will have to wait till the weather improves. A Bright Tech flip dot destination display has also gone back in. This was the one from its sister 461. It's set to idle in this photo and you can make out the idle dots in the centre of the screen.
Because of the bad weather, the focus has been on the inside with cleaning ect. The ticket machine is staying as they are the ones Bournemouth Transport had when 455 was brand new in 1995.
There is enough for everyone. I laugh when I hear kids say, "I liked that song first and now she likes it.....GOSH!"

The photo on the left is from my iPhone 3Gs (3 megapixels), and the photo on the right is from my Canon EOS 7D (18 megapixels) using a 15-85mm lens, zoomed to 85mm Click on image to enlarge it.
Angle of View: You'll note that the yellow poppy in both photos is the same size, whereas the two red poppies are enlarged on the iPhone photo. You'll also note that the iPhone photo includes more of the background behind the poppies. This is because the iPhone's "normal" lens has an angle of view of about 45 degrees, whereas the Canon's 85mm is about a 2X telephoto on this camera with about 1/2 the angle of view (about 23 degrees). Selecting a longer focal length allows me to narrow my vision and be more selective in what appears in my background.
Depth of Field: But, the big thing everyone notices right away is depth of field: what is in focus, and what is not. The iPhone has a 3.85mm fixed focal length lens, so it has incredible depth of field (DOF). The hairs on the stems of the two red poppies are tack sharp from the flower, almost all the way to the ground, whereas none of the hairs on the Canon shot are in focus. The EXIF info shows that both images were shot at 1/125 second shutter speed but the iphone's aperture was wide open at F2.8, and the Canon lens' aperture was stopped down 1/2 stop (from F5.6) to F6.3
So why is there such shallow DOF with the Canon shot, even though it was taken with an aperture setting that is 2.5 stops smaller? That's because the aperture opening on the iPhone was only 1.375mm in diameter (3.85mm divided by 2.8) compared to an aperture opening of 13.492mm in diameter (85mm divided by 6.3) for the Canon lens. And this is all because the image sensor size for the iPhone is less than 1/2 the size of your little fingernail, while the Canon's 7D image sensor is an APS-C size that is more than twice the size of your thumbnail.
My work flow: I often take images with my iPhone first, and if like the shot, I'll pull out the "big guns": either my Canon 7D or my Canon 5D Mark II with it's full-frame image sensor (allowing for even shallower DOF). With these two DSLR's I can choose a focal length (angle of view) and set the aperture for the DOF I want.
iPhone Rules (in some cases): Occasionally, I'll need the incredible DOF that a short focal length lens provides. This keeps everything in focus. Short focal length, wide angle lens on your DSLR will do this too, but you also get wide-angle distortion (close objects are overly large compared to distant objects). The iPhone's somewhat "normal" angle of view lens give limited distortion that is similar to what our eye sees.

monsieur! crossing ze street is so dangerouse!
So it's less than 24 hours until the KOTO sponsored bike ride.
An eighty kilometre bicycle ride through the still green lakes and hills of Vietnam, to raise money for a worthy cause: the education and training of street children of Ha Noi, by an aussie charity here.
I'm all hyped up. Pumped, as Arnie says. I'm ready to kill myself doing this.
And kill myself doing this is extremely likely.Did I mention that I'm not really outdoorsy?That despite my action man exploits underwater, back on dry land, I remain the world's biggest seven stone weakling?Did I mention that I haven't ridden a bicycle in fifteen years?Did I mention that I haven't done any physical exercise at all since rowing with the british dragonboat team in Singapore four weeks ago?I did mention that just those two hours left me crippled for two days, didn't I?Did I point out what eighty kilometres is in imperial measurements? It's FIFTY MILES. When I wrote to everyone in my address book asking for sponsorship, I didn't realise this. To a Brit, every metrical measurement appears tiny. I assumed this would be something simple, like a foot or so. 80 metres. 80 centimetres. Perhaps 80 millimetres. You know, something possible?I ever mention to you that even in the gym in days of yore, the stationary bike machines were the one thing I couldn't cope with? That my thigh muscles are such flaccid dead fish of a human sinew that they usually appeared to split at the seams after just 75 repetitions of pressing down an unweighted wheel to get nowhere?Many of my good sponsors have communicated an earnest hope that I have been in training since I foolishly agreed to murder myself by two wheeled means. This is not so. My training regime has been a peculiar one. It involves food poisoning, a full week laid prone in bed, running to the toilet every hour, and eating one bowl of rice and boiled broccoli a day. I look skinnier, yeah, but fitter? Think 'The Pianist'.Have I mentioned that Ha Noi's road traffic doesn't follow any rules whatsoever? That simply crossing a road intact was a Vietnamese challenge set by one reader, here?The streets are infested with speeding mopeds, ridden to be seen, not to get from A to B, and therefore populated with the type of motorist whose mirrors are angled to check their hair is straight rather than to stay alive.The rules of the road are: the bigger the vehicle, the faster you have to move out of the way. Horns are a deafening everpresent scrum. A horn beeping replaces the indicator lights, replaces the use of brakes, alerts people to the oncoming road accident, and tells everyone that you're rich enough to have a moped. Horns beep day and night in an orchestral cacophony. Horns beeping will not save me from harm.Did I tell you that the reason I never cycled in London was because I'm not roadworthy. I was the only kid in my primary school class who didn't pass the Cycling Proficiency Test.Did I tell you that the last time I cycled anywhere, I had to ask a friend to cycle just in front of me, so I could steal the signals from her without looking behind me? Because if I look over my shoulder, I wobble ten feet to the left, then fall off the bike?That I've never yet managed to stay on the bike on a mild incline?That I have a serious problem navigating Ha Noi's streets, and have only once managed to leave my hotel without getting lost within six paces?That one of the KOTO bike rides central problems is that people with an actual sense of direction get lost year after year?Are you feeling quite how bloody foolish this bike ride will be for me yet?Nevertheless I will do this.
I will do this because KOTO is a really really worthwhile cause. I will do this because I promised my friends if they sponsored me, I would photograph my agony and embarrassment.
I will do this because having read this promise, my sodding bloody over-generous friends committed more than $800USD in just 48 hours, if I kill myself on Saturday.
Every mile I ride, every muscle I tear, every ragged gasp I breathe, every pained tear I shed, every tendon I split will be recorded for their delectation.
And it will kill me.
"if you're not willing to be changed by a place, there's no point in going."
If you're willing to add to the sum raised by my death, and are titillated by the thought that KOTO will sell you pictures of it, please leave your email and your sponsorship promises in the comments below.
