Manhattan Notes: -The X80 is a special version of the M35, only used during during game days in the Island. (Track and field, etc) It is used due to high amounts of passengers. Instead of having the M35 do all of this (Which also carries tons of people going to Wards Island), the X80 is used. You pay, the same fare of an Express Bus (5.50) and from what I heard you get a free ride out of the Island. -M60 has been on artics for over a month now. LGA can take it. -Clip was taken from 2nd Avenue (X80 to Lexington Ave /125) & M60 at Lexington Ave (With also an Orion 7 NG) Bus Numbers: 1247 1288 3891 5638 Fleets here: Orion 7 NG (M60) , NovaBus LFSA (X80/M60) , New Flyer D60HF (BX15) ENJOY =)!

  • Rolling Clouds over San Francisco (Time-lapse)

    One of the best places to take in the view of downtown San Francisco is Twin Peaks. Situated in the heart of San Francisco on a great day (like this one) you can see clear across the bay. I consider myself lucky as I live rather close to this great look out spot, but I don’t enjoy the view as often as I should. On the day I shot this time-lapse I opted to spend my lunch break here. It was time very well spent even if a little windy.

    One last thing if you’re in San Francisco this weekend its Fleet Week and that means the Blue Angels will be flying over head. Be sure to check out my article 10 Essential Tips To Get Great Blue Angels Photos if you’re planning to photograph them this weekend..
