Those are pretty good photos. I'm curious though, what's all the haze especially in the shots towards the end?

Finally, somebody has a pic of the Optima Opus bus. Awesome pics Brandon, as usual.

Those buses were smoking ugh and they are ugly in the back. At least MTA could've used some 30 foot Flyers or something.

Looks like mostly Mondawmin with some North Avenue, East Fayette Street, and Downtown in the mix as well.

Nice variety Brandon - really like the shot with two of the three Optimas in the same frame!

George, Aside from Downtown, Mondawmin is likely the next best hot spot since buses from 3 of the 4 divisions pass there regularly.  Only downside is when school lets out, the kids tend to raise some havoc at times.

Just like Minnesota Ave and Addison Road. Anyways thanks for the compliments everyone. Man the Opus' are like....ugh. I ALMOST got a pic of 8003 but settled for a video which is going to be in my next TMV. Got some Bmore Metro videos finally.

Nice shots! I guess the Opuses really do run on the 97.  Tis a shame I never got to ride/see one :(.

The optimas are hit or miss at best, in my observations. They aren't in use everyday.
