  • Composition of original is weak, with another bus cluttering the frame, and the base of a water tower "growing" out of the top of the bus. I like the alternative better, although it's not impressive enough to be FP. In my view, for mundane subjects such as buses, which one can see everyday, you need a more stunning photo. I'm less sure of what the Valued Image project is looking for so can't really comment on that yet. Fletcher (talk) 23:26, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • What's up with the first one - can anyone else see all those streaks all over it? I'm guessing you took it through the (dirty) window of another vehicle? Agree with Fletcher's other comments about it, and it also looks to be significantly tilted. The second one is more interesting and looks better quality, though doesn't seem to be taken at the happiest of angles for EV. --jjron (talk) 14:36, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • It does look like it was shot through a dirty window... that's just not going to work most of the time, unless you can clean it off -- or open the window. Fletcher (talk) 14:55, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
