10 webkif_4981.JPG   The remains of the car (L) and bus (R) workshops. Coach PIL4059 can just be glimpsed through the car workshop entrance - look to the right of the blue 'Auto Safe' sign on the wall. Also, seeing the part-melted Austin Rover sign on the wall was v poignant for me as it's a reminder of the era when the garage was a dealership - another piece of history gone up in smoke.  Tanat Valley Coaches - UPDATED 05/06/2007.  (424)

Welcome
Hi! Many of the pics on this site have been taken using a Kyocera 5 megapixel digital camera, while more recent examples have been shot with a Fuji Finepix S9500 SLR.

Photography has ranked among my hobbies since childhood and as a teenager I did a fair amount of freelance work for publication, incl. 'Heritage Railway' magazine, 'Railway Magazine', 'Steam Railway', Coach & Bus Week, as well as local newspapers (pics not always included here). I'm fortunate that it now forms a key element of my day-to-day employment :o))

I photograph landscapes, buildings, people, animals, as well as trains and buses & coaches ..and anything that takes my fancy to be honest, the quirkier the better it often has to be said!

Some pics on this site have been much reduced in size, meaning that they may appear to be slightly pixelated.

Full res' pics are avaiable for publication etc, subject to terms & conditions, by contacting me on gaz the jurno AT hotmail dot com [miss out gaps etc].
